OK... this is NOT ordinary... this thing is SCARY... no kidding! It is the ground part of "Masters of Disaster" airshow. This thing is loud and obnoxious, and anything but normal...
Cropped... desat blues, cyans, and greens, tiny bump up of sat on other colors (just slightly), resized, double sharpen.
I don't really think this is that great of a photo... but hey it is EXTRAORDINARY... and if someone says its off challenge I'm going to laugh REALLY hard!
Oh yeah... don't tailgate this guy, for your own safety ;-)

Two challenges in a row, this chap will be charging DPC modeling fees soon! I think the crop is a little tight on this shot, and I would have liked to see a little blur in the wheels, or something to show the movement. I assume he is moving as the flames on the stacks are going backwards in this shot, and weren't in the newspaper challenge. A slower shutter speed maybe..
This looks very similar to a shot in the Newspaper challenge. I like the capture of the the waveriness in the air the heat causes. Kind of a static looking viewpoint though.
