This is a horse head statuette, placed in front of a large screen TV, displaying an image of an inferno. I like it, as an abstract concept. Not sure how it will do at DPC – a little outside the DPC standards I fear. Anyway, tweaked a lot in raw to get the underexposed image back to something cool. Then lots of hue/sat and channel mixer adjustments, 4 or 5 NI passes and a few USM passes. Cropped, rotated, saved for web.
I predict either 6.2 or a 4.5 This will be an interesting test of DPC tastes.

I was born in the (Chinese) Year of the Fire Horse (1966), so I appreciate this shot a lot more than most who posted comments on it! I was one of your 9s.
