I doubt that I will get a great score with this one. But as I went close to this monster with no other weapon than a macro lense, I guess I have to show the world how brave I am ;-)

Anyway, as I am not a great fan of this picture, I did not lose a lot of time on processing: cropped, curves, smart sharpen, standard border, resized (bicubic sharper), saved for web.
