 Whoa, I wasn't really suspecting a Top 10 out of this one. This is stepping a bit out of my box as I tend to utilize color to a great extent. However, i did like the shapes and organic geometry of this shot so I went with it.

As an added bonus I got a great case of poison oak for my trouble. I'm still dealing with a secondary rash called an id reaction. Fun fun!

Converted from RAW, channel mixer, contrast, color balance for sepia, USM, resize, NI.

tighter crop on the bottom would give more focus on the flow, bottom left corner distracts
