 I was working on a photo project about the obnoxious amount of dumping in the desert, when I found...a boat! Despite the absurdity of some jerk not taking the time to deliver his old boat to the dump, it was a funny sort of situation, so I photographed it! I also used the following processes in no particular order:

Hue/Saturation
levels
curves
dodging
burning

The title confuses me. I'd like to know who this jerk is. :D But I really like the photo.

Seems over processed. Maybe a little too much burn tool.

Not sure I understand the reasoning behind desaturating the sky, other than the sake of doing it. Seems like an odd choice to me.

Funny title :)
A little much on the sky and not so on the foreground.
