PP: cropped, levels, boosted saturation by 10%, skew to fix warpage caused by wide angle lens, sharpened (Lab color: lightness channel).
I really have no idea how this will do. I sure like it though, and selected it from dozens of photos. It look a long time, too, especially the sharpening. I finally had to sharpen at a large pixel radius and a low percentage or it kept adding annoying noise. I hope at least someone enjoys this as much as I do.

Very graphic, nice color (possibly a tad oversaturated, but it works) and technically well exectued. The black border even works, which I'm usually against. Nice entry -- it should do well.
Very nice! The best I have seen so far (13% done). You managed to capture the precise perspective that made this a potentially winning shot. Well done.
