    I presume the building is indeed that colour, and the rest of the picture has simply been desaturated to make a more striking contrast... ;)

    I`d like to see the original when the comp closes. :thumbup:

    I beleive that too much is being made of the use of enhancement software in Picture #3.

    For a start, we do not know that Photoshop was used. It may have been some other software? So, it does not break any Photoshoping rules! Or, is the name 'Photoshop' being used in the same context that: Thermos, Hoover, etc. are misused? Should we not refer to all pneumatic tyres as: Dunlops? That would pi55 off Michelin!:thumbup:

    If one believes that the photo has been enhanced beyond acceptable limits, then, just don't vote for it!

    I don't believe that BrisFit should have to make value judgements which are dependant on other people's values!

    This is an outrage. I'm selling my car and buying a saxo.

    With the voting over, I can confirm that the winner this month is, me. :thumbup:

    Firstly, thanks to everyone that took the time to enter the competition.
    Secondly, a big thanks to the people that looked through the pictures and voted.
    Thirdly, the biggest thanks to those of you that voted for mine. [:D]

    I think that's it for now. I'll get the next competition theme sorted for tomorrow evening. :)





    Oh, wait. FOURTHLY, Stella, see me in my office afterwards. ;)

    Well done, BF. :)

    I was so torn between 1990's and Danster's, that are both so modern, they're not even complete yet! ;)

    And I am as red in the face as the building in my photo, now that I've been unmasked as the Photoshopper! :lol: Not only desaturated but also IR'd :o
