TheMegalomaniac you are wright I had trouble meeting the 150K size requirements. The quality was resented :)


Congratulations on your top 20!! Those size restrictions always drive me crazy .. I like blending shades of a color and when I resize I get banding :)

Very effectivley meets the challenge, but it's almost a little TOO busy. It's hard for my eye to find a focal point in this mass of detail.

This suffers from the resizing - there's so much detail that a lot of it seems to get lost in the sharpening. It's certainly an ornate mantelpiece! ;-)

Great title. The shot seems a tad underexposed, but a layers or curves adjustement might help with the overall richness of tone.

Maybe some steps backwards for larger crop and more 'depth' would be even better
