I double-checked the "minimal editing" rules, and sharpening is allowed, but just simple sharpening. The rule states:
You may:
sharpen your entry using your editing software’s “sharpen” or equivalent option. The use of customizable sharpening tools, such as Unsharp Mask, is not allowed. |
in that case i stand corrected. Congrats again. Well deserved. No doubt about it now :) |

Huge congrats from one of your twenty two 9's. I would had given this a 10 if I knew it was minimal editing at the time of voting. Great work!!!!
ETA> I just noticed it's a a one way tunnel! So perfect for this kind of shot

Thanks Alex! Nothing special, really. I don't normally do the "save for web" method. Usually I'll just go to Image/Image Size, then refit the width to 800 px. Then I did a simple sharpen in photoshop. In this shot, I made sure that I was putting pressure on the tripod with my right hand while I was pushing the remote trigger, to make sure the tripod bounced along with the car. Also, I was only going about 15 mph through this tunnel, since no one was behind me, which made the car bounce around less, and made the blurring lights much smoother. |

Ok here's the deal. While this is a very good entry in "Out Your Favorite Window", I do see some issues.
1. Although it says the photo has been validated, I know you must have somehow cheated in basic editing. There is no way you could get this in basic...validated or not.
2. I like the blue hue to the photo. However, I can't help but see some issues with the two white bands at the top. I know it must have been tough to get a shot this good but you could have taken more time in making sure the white bands at the top were not "blown out" highlights. I mean you could have taken a few more shots and tried to get the whites in order.
3. The main reason I have to change my score (I voted several days ago) is this. The challenge is titled "Out Your Favorite Window". You titled your photo "My Dog's Favorite Window". So basically this entry does not meet challenge. With all of that said, I will have to move my vote from my original "seven" to a "ten". Ha! I had you going! Admit it. The Mad Commenter strikes again! |
Wow, you got me good... I was reading this on my phone, and I was halfway to my computer to send a snippy reply when I got to the bottom... |

Well going by the title of the challenge ".... Your favourite window ......" and the title "... Dogs favourite window ..." pretty dang unsafe letting your dog use your camera - I mean the lack of fingers let alone oposable thumbs....
I rather like the colours in this photo, though of course the dog only sees B&W
Of course strictly speaking it is a bit naughty of you letting your dog use your membership, should really have its own but I think for such a superb shot I expect the DC will make an exception ... well done pooch. |

| Almost straight out of Tron - I don't think I'd ever trust my camera out a window on a stick - especially not when driving. Well planned and executed. |
