City Competition 5 - all cities! : Entry Number 385

The jury applauds this photographer for his or her creativity, daring, humor, and iconoclasm.  This image shows there is still plenty of opportunity left to deploy the medium of photography in service to surprising and delighting the viewer.  Although it is far from a flawless composition, the jury hopes it will embolden other photographers to take risks and to explore alternative approaches to their craft in the future.

My intention is to entertain and amuse. The glows and drips aren't perfect, but neither is the concept. But it was fun to do. I do hope that the creative use of alternative photography applications is excepted as "art". Messing around with Photoshop Elements is where I find the most creativity. I used a Nikon D-90 and a Cannon SX30. Capuchin is from Costa Rica, Gull From San Francisco Bay, Sky line shot from Airplane landing in New Jersey, Boat from remote model in Golden Gate Park pond. All composited in photoshop elements on a Mac laptop. No wonder it was not flawless. Neither am I. Thank you for recognizing my intentions and creativity.
