DPChallenge: A Digital Photography Contest
 
Challenge Details
Hidden Gem -- 1,000th Challenge!
An Open Challenge using the Advanced Editing VII rules.

Description
DPChallenge is celebrating its 1000th challenge, and it's time to look back at our photographic legacy. Dig through your archives and show us the best photo you've ever taken with a digital camera. It might be an outtake, a side challenge photo, or even a great shot you took before you joined. Anything you haven't already entered in a challenge is fair game, but you must have the original with valid EXIF data available for validation. Oh, and while you're at it, why not browse through past challenges and mark a few favorites from your fellow DPCers? You might just discover a hidden gem!
