 I debated between Mimimalism II and Fill the Frame II.

"ucks" has been burned out for over a month now. I don't know why they don't fix it, but it's given me a chuckle for a long time now.

Cropped such that "ucks" negative space is there. Contrast enhanced, USM 40 pixel radius for contrast, a few hot pixels and reflections cloned out, Resize, USM to sharpen, and save for web. Nothing drastic here.
