I understand why this was called a vignette in basic. I like the image, I think the processing is rock solid. Personally, I don't care for the border, I think it detracts from the image and gives it an almost claustrophbic feel.

I could clearly tell it was a border too. Sorry about the DQ, its a great shot.

Oh crud - disqualified for a faded border???
This style of border is not unusual and at least in my opinion, is clearly a border, not a vignette.
Sorry about the SC ruling on this one. Nice shot regardless!

A common subject in this challenge. But you have handled it very well. Good lighting and great post processing.

Very nice, the light is good, color and contrast are good. Are the darkened edges allowed in Basic Editing?

Everything here is weathered. I can almost smell the damp wood. Beautiful!

Good subject(s) I like how pretty much everything in the frame has seen it's fair share of weather
