I thought I had a couple of nice shots to choose between, both taken on the 17th then I realized I took them before last week's rollover (3 PM for me) and I made this realization with about 3 hours left to today's rollover. Some of the photos I took on the same day would have been okay time wise but nothing suitable.
So here's one that I took yesterday - and yes, I took it as a possibility, but I didn't think I would end up choosing it.

Crop
Topaz Adjust
Spot healing tool
Sponge tool, desaturate some colour halos
Canvas size

SFW
I'm a little surprised that some didn't see the distractions. I'm sure that if this were put in, say, a flower or garden challenge, the background clutter of baskets, car parts and posts would soon cost me points.
