Found these black and white sunglasses recently in our local "if you want junk, we've got it" shop. I was looking for some dracula teeth for my husband to wear in the personality challenge. Lucky for him they didn't have any in stock ;-)
I read recently in one of the forum threads that levels are fine when post processing but curves are something else. I gave them a try on this pic and it makes quite a difference - wish I'd found this out sooner.
The score was at 5.2 - 5.5 for the first two days then slowly crawled its way up to around 6.5.
Thanks for that and the comments and the very unexpected ribbon!! YIPPEEEE!!

Congrats on another ribbon! What an extremely cool pair of sunnies....Great image!
I'm a bit concerned to hear that you've just discovered 'curves', now we have another reason to be very afraid! LOL!!
Now those are some seriously fun glasses lol. You have got to get someone to wear these and pose in a portrait pic - I would love to see that. What a fun pairing with that striped background. Congrats on the ribbon!
Congratulations on the ribbon, love the composition and love those glasses! In a couple of months there won't be room on your profile page for all your ribbons!
wow irene .. you've done it again .. !!!
a brilliant & imaginative idea translated into a fantastic image ..
congrats on a great place in the challenge .... :)
I gave this a 6 on my first pass but upgraded it to an 8 on my second pass. The image is very sharp and certainly eye popping in DPC fashion. Great idea and an excellent result!!
