Challenge: Oil (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Nikon D300
Lens: Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED
Location: Melbourne Australia
Date: Aug 2, 2009
Aperture: F 3.2
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/640
Galleries: Abstract, Macro
Date Uploaded: Aug 2, 2009

 The Image: Placed oil and water in a glass and backlit it with daylight. Used my macro to get a pretty simple shot

The Edit: Levels adjustment, curves, then some duplication of adjustment layers to bring out different hues and saturations. Some USM, some Noise Ninja, some curves adjustment and some dodge and burn. Cleaned up a few spots with the healing 'bandaid'. Some selective sharpening and blurring. I like the abstract result.

The Prediction: I really can't predict it. How about 6.1244?

Post: not bad I guess...

Like the orange and purple hues and the sort of triangle shape of the bubbles.

I don't think that your title helps this interesting photo.
