 I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
Pablo Neruda

boo! i used power retouche, radial density which gave it the vignette.

Darn!! I missed this -- both in the challenge -- and the unfortunate aftermath of it getting DQ'd! I hate that. I bet you did it in RAW before you even opened the photo up too. That really seems like it oughta be legal. It's not even a photo before RAW converts it. It's almost like doing it in the camera.

Well at any rate, this is certainly another heart-stopping photo. Mesmerizing!

Too bad. I'm with posthumous, tell the council that for Basic, you should be allowed to chew vinaigrette. ;-)

Like how the red is minimal, but still reaches out and grabs you. Cool photo!
