Challenge: Weekend (Advanced Editing V)
Camera: Pentax *ist DS
Lens: Sigma 18-125mm f/3.5-5.6 DC for Pentax
Location: Gold Coast
Date: Jul 1, 2007
Aperture: 16
ISO: 200
Shutter: 6 Seconds
Date Uploaded: Jul 1, 2007

 The edit here is pretty rushed - I hope I don't get mauled for it, haven't had time yet to do it properly.

It might even look a bit over-processed - but really I haven't done much - convert from raw with a fairly warm white balance and a bit of curves.

Lame title I know - but I was a bit lost at how to title this shot (which is, in fact, very representative of what I did with my weekend) in such a way as to avoid pedantic 'doesn't meet the challenge' votes.

Wow - talk about a strange voting pattern. After 21 votes this shot was hovering about 6.2, but by 50 votes I was up in the 6.8s. Sadly it collapsed again at the death.
