 from RAW, very little PP other than the inversion itself of course. But the RAW image was WB'd to flourescent :-) I pushed the saturation and compressed the levels, which introduced some noise, so I neat-imaged too. That's about it.

the clouds dont really do it for me, though they add a sense of depth to the composition. but on the other hand, the flock of birds - they are great to look at, especially the formation. Too bad they are a tad too tiny to really discern any detail from.

I call photos like this abstract realism. Bravo that it also works great as a negative. I like the duotone feel of the photograph. Good job.

i think this picture was just just color adjusted and not inverted. that being said, it's still a nice photo.

Simple and effective. The two light lines--birds and clouds--work well together as a repetitive pattern, but also as contrasting textures.
