 Levels, saturation, cloned out some marks on the ribbon, desat yellow channel, crop, border, resize, usm, usm, usm.

Took a bit of thinking to get him in the balloon but finally worked it out. He was happily swimming around in it for the time I took the shots.

Don't know how this will score but it's good to do a shot that you have in your mind (goldfish in balloon) and get it to work.

Go Team Austalia

Not sure how you got the poor thing in there, or back out again, but nice job.

Very nice! I think if the fish was closer to the edge and more in focus you would score even higher.

Oh my goodness, how did you get that poor fish in there? Haha, this is really funny.
In the beginning of the week I was toying with the idea of sticking something inside of a balloon, but this is just crazy!
Very well done. It is well photographed and contains a lot of shock value
