Over-tweaked image. This appears to violate the Basic Editing rule: I quote:
"Filters: The use of filters (or non-Photoshop equivalent) is strictly limited. Any filter or stand-alone utility designed and used to preserve the integrity of the image and/or reduce the effects of noise, scratches, etc, are permitted. These include but are not limited to the Sharpen, Unsharp Mask, and Dust & Scratches filters, and standalone image cleanup utilities such as NeatImage. However, no effects filters may be applied to your image, with the exception of Noise and Gaussian Blur, which are allowed. Any filter permitted by this rule must be applied uniformly to the entire image. Selective application of any filter is prohibited."
Point #1: Not over tweaked. Point #2: Doesn't violate the rules. Editing rules, and I quote:
"Any modification done inside the digital camera itself is considered acceptable for challenge submission."
"Post-shot Adjustments may be made to your image in a photo editing program, so long as the modification is applied to the whole image. This includes levels, conversion to black and white, hue/saturation, sizing/rotating, curves and cropping [...]."
The effect you see is solarization, done IN camera (and a surrealist technique). Shadows were red, so I adjusted the red level to turn it black and slightly adjusted green curves. All this is legal OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE BEEN DQ-ed!! So, essentially what I'm saying is you are wrong.
I'm not sure i know what to think of this shot. This looks like a wierd photoshop effect, which doesn't give much credibility to a surrealism challenge. sorry. 4
