 Shot this at a Golf Charity Tournament for a 2 & 1/2 year old girl with Arnold Chiari Malformation type 1. She's already had two major brain surgeries (costing about $15,000 each after insurance) and needs another one. Didn't shoot this with the challenge in mind, but I try to check to see if any of my recent shootings fit the current challenges and this one did. I don't expect much, but what the heck.

Anyway, not much was done to the image...

Processed in Lightroom 1.4.1
Bumped up blue saturation (+34) and dropped luminance (-34)
Minor tone curve adjustments
Added a little vibrance
wee bit of smart sharpening after resizing for submission

That is a narrow fairway. I would slice it in the trees. :)
Nice shot, interesting perspective.

very good shadows, but the picture itself is pretty boring.
