 I desaturated all the colors except for the blue clouds. Then I adjusted the contrast to get the finished shot.

This is another picture I think should have scored much higher. Very original, and I look forward to your future entries.

Very creative image. The way only sky color is retained in this image and that it is only reflected in the mirror is a great metaphor to meet this particular challenge.

Interesting shot with the black & white versus color. Combined with an original idea it's a really strong entry.

This doesn't do much for me, probably because i have seen pictures from the side mirror a number of times now and once the novelty has worn off, there isn't all that much interesting to look at. 5 Journey

I see you are wearing your seat belt. At least your not driving and taking pictures. :-) Nice Idea. I would have angled the mirror out more, to have less car in the picture.

That looks like selective colouring to me! Not allowed unfortunately.

Original! Nice blue sky back there. The natural framing of the mirror creates an interesting effect.

This picture is geat. I love how you have "presented" the weather. Original, fun and technically great. (How on earth did you ever get your side mirror that clean?)

Great shot... the contrast of dark ahead, blue skies behind is really cool!

I like the use of the mirror. Very nice.

Slightly quirky take on the theme, but an absolutely crystal clear shot of some lovely skies. I also love the fact that you've managed to capture more reflections in the windows. One of my favourites this week, very original. 9.
