 We were at the circus and during the trapeze act I looked up and noticed the shadows on the wall created by the spotlight. I started taking pictures of the shadows. Processing involved converting to black & white using two hue/saturation levels. Then adjusted with levels and sharpened and saved for web. It probably won't do very good in the challenge but I like the interplay of the split shadows.

This is my blue ribbon. Sorry to give you the posthumous curse, but it's your fault for creating such a brilliant, transformative image. 10

This is a really awesome shot. I hope it does well, though I'm not sure it's DPCish enough for that. 10

I would really love this without the Gold's Gym emblem - not sure how that adds, or if it was an unavoidable part of the shot.

The logo in the upper right kind of detracts from the balance of the artistic mood. But otherwise a nice capture.
