 silly title.

handheld macro shot of a bunch of balloons as they moved about in the wind. converted this to grayscale in Lightroom, then some Topaz and PSElements to heighten the mood. Hope this is a nice break from all the heavy saturation I expect to see in this challenge, and will score a bit better as a result.

That's really neat. I like the smokey look and the composition.

You have absolutely killed the impact of this photograph with your over-the-top border. Without it, this would have scored much, much higher from me. 5

A neat perspective. I'm not sure that I understand the title.
