I was quite surprised when I came back from my vacation and found that this picture was disqualified. When I was leaving it was 5.6 and I didn't think that it would be questioned, I have no idea why anybody would question the authenticity of the photo, unless you are not really into photoshopping. The frame is just masking, layering, and working with eraser and opacity. No elements were added and I tried to achieve an artistic look I saw on another picture. It was taken on time but it is too late to send the original for authentication, the DPC told me. If anyone interested I can send the original.
