Ok, so I needed a cover photo for my master's thesis report. It needed to look good both in color and black and white for printing purposes. I wanted the photo to really capture the reader's attention, with focus on the vehicle and not the background, so I shot at f2.8. I also wanted the photo to show the behavior of the vehicle, so the vertical trees in the background really give a good reference to the roll angle of the body to show the vehicle is cornering. Basically I just took the saturation of the green and yellow channels to -100. I usually try to never do any local adjustments, but I did in this photo because the ramp in the background was distracting.

A rather uninspiring shot of Boston Light on a hot afternoon at 4 pm...

This Horseshoe Bend just outside of Page, Arizona.
Taken with a Canon 5DIII and a Rokinon 14 mm f/2.8 UMC 1/40th, ISO 100. I believe the aperture was f/8.
I tried taking multiple exposures to combine in post. But, I liked the end results of modifying a single image the best (so far).

I am glad this is not a weekly assignment... I do not have to pick a winner. I just have to narrow it down to five or so (which is going to be hard enough), but you all have to choose a winner out of all the excellent examples. :)
Keep them coming.
Edit: Opps... I see the entry period has ended (June 29th). I will try to figure out who the finalist will be. This is not going to be easy.
Brant - Sorry I did not wait for your "official" announcement of the end of the assignment. I hope you do not mind.

It looks like Brant is to humble to announce his own win. So I will.:)
Congratulation Brant (Kayaker72). Well done and a good example of what you can pull out of the shadows of a RAW file.
