It is with much regret that I must notify SC that I have entered the wrong version into this contest and having done so have broken the rules of basic editing.

I want to thank all that voted and placed me here - too bad I'm an idiot and entered the wrong one:-(( I'm pretty bummed out but can't changed the fact I made a stupid mistake.

Again, thanks for your votes and sorry to dissappoint. The other version that falls within the rules is very nearly the same as this :-((

Thanks PapaBob:-) It's not my first and it definitely won't be my last mistake LOL Hopefully there'll be quite a bit of time to the next one here though!!

Sorry to hear about the DQ, but I really admire the honesty it takes to admit your mistake. Great image either way!

Thanks Jewels. That's what happens when you enter too many contests/challenges/assignments on the same day with the same image:-(( I had the "valid" entry all ready and done up and the editing steps on a sticky note on my Mac - I just noticed after the voting closed which steps of editing I entered and realized (obviously way too late) what I had done - wrong image uploaded with invalid basic editing steps to match. I'm pretty bummed out about it but what can ya do - just a stupid careless mistake. What's the real bummer is the valid one is as good with just a very slight difference as I didn't use the multiply on a duplicate layer of the image but insteadit used a double curve adjustment layer and lowered the opacity of the second one:-(( Live and learn - I just have to be WAY MORE CAREFUL!!!!

Thanks again for the kind comments!

Beautiful in its abstractness. Love the angular mixed with the irregularity of the clouds. Perfect use of BW 10
