 I found this by happy coincidence.

The other day, I was playing indoor soccer at the olympic park but there was a game on at the stadium across the road so there was no parking available for miles. The place I eventually parked my car (leaving me 15 minutes late for the game), was bordering an interesting looking nature reserve so I went back there today to do some shots, and came across this which I thought would be perfect for the "Weathered" challenge!

Cropped, masked the background area and applied curves to darken. Topaz to bring out details, Silver Efex for B&W conversion, brightness / contrast layer, rotated 90 degrees, resized, SFW.

My prediction for this one, 5.9 and probably mid 20's.
