Darcy and Sophie. curves for contrast, some blending to bring detail and color out of the highlights. I had to put my hand over the lens to keep it from getting overexposed.

Ok -- I was going to comment on 5 pictures, and write poems for all 5. Considering the fact that I have an incredible headache, you should be very impressed. However, as I stared at this, the etching of the chicken on top of the left dog was wayyyyy too distracting, and the poem just dissipated. Now I am going to spend my entire night thinking about the etching of the chicken, and be completely unable to write poetry, and it's all your fault!
I know what it is, and I like the pencil sketch on watercolor feel of the dogs (but at first glance it looked like one of those "these are the lungs of a smoker" posters.)
I'm not sure that the author recognizes, or even intended this to be, abstract expressionism in the style of Jackson Pollock, but it is a great example of the genre. I enjoy abstract art and photography - manipulated or not. The title gives the image purpose. Probably not going to score high, but it's a favorite for me.
