 The original challenge entry was this:

I think i like it better in duotone.

This was a 15 second exposure at dusk in Central Park. The blur in the pic is from branches swaying in the heavy wind.

Serious amounts of PP here... Converted from Raw, HDR'd, Duotone'd, dodge & burn for about an hour, curves work, etc

This is my most photoshopped image.

I dont really know why but I'm pretty sure this is my favorite photograph I've ever taken :D

When a fairy tale meets a nightmare, the epic battle begins. REALLY a cool shot.

I can't beleive I haven't seen this one before. What a great use of Sepia. Most images like this would look overdone, but this one is perfect.

Adam, it is time for you to upgrade your gear. You have a fantastic eye and take wonderful images. Sooner or later you are going to be limited on size etc. You deserve a new bigger camera! Love your stuff.

The duotone is great. It is much stronger than the original color image to me. It reminds me of the Disney movie "Fantasia" .

I can see why it is your favorite - this is gorgeous. Very Grimm's Fairy Tale-ish and the duotoning is great for capturing that overall fantasy feel. The from-the-ground perspective is an excellent choice - heightens the "larger than life" sense.
