Thanks to Photo Assistant Carol for pressing the shutter button while I flailed about on a fencepost. Balancing a chair on two fingers while standing on one leg (or trying to, and doing a lot of falling) is not something you should do if you're concerned about looking cool to passers-by.
For once, this was not a rushed entry. It was nice to have some time to review and refine the treatment of this image.
I am feeling rather unsure about this one--it's outside of my macro-oriented comfort zone I've been developing of late. I'm afraid this may come across as merely weird, but it's what I got, so here goes nothing.
PP was nothing special. Straighten horizon, darken foreground, clean up sky, color treatment, crop. That's pretty much it.

Midway though voting, I've learned a new color term: "baby-puke yellow"

This will only counter balance me right off the fence. Hope you had enough time to compose this and his balance is better than mine. Not sure the green colour works so well here
