I don't expect this to do well in the challenge, but it is (despite the heavy processing) one of my favorite images from last year. I even had a 36"x48" canvas print made of it.

Very nice. I really like your processing. I hope you give an account of how you processed or send me the details in a private message. I would appreciate it very much.
I'm trying to decide if this has to much noise reducing software applied or just to much Topaz (or the equivalent) was applied...kind of has a very eerie feel to it
I like the quiet city street scene you have captured here - the wet cobblestone street captures the warm glow from the shop window and the streetlamps. Two people walk the romantic city streets of Venice. The biggest thing that is distracting about this shot is the it goes overboard with the Topazed colors. The color overpowers the eye. There is also a loss of detail in the upper half of the building above the store and the columns to the right seem too smooth - more loss of detail. However the stairs, the street the store and the lampposts have good detail.
