 I didn't want to go the abstract route, and I wanted to do something different from what I had seen in the previous challenges. Don't expect high marks, however I learned a lot from this setup, and I am pleased with the shot. (I think that's the point to these competitions, so mission accomplished!)

Not much editing, LR import, crop, basic slider adjustments. CS5 to clone out a couple of distractions, size and sharpen.

Hope you enjoy!

I would have worked more with high lights and shadows here, two curves layers, one in screen blending mode and one in multiply, then invert the masks and brush out high lights in screen and shadows in multiply. 10% opacity brush is usually good. And also darkened the background, and maybe used a subtle vignette. But that's what I would've done. Nice shot though! 8

This is a proper DPC top 10. The one thing to make me minus a point is the tilt (although it's not so bad).
