 the German government funded the building of an 8ft tall 12ft long sheetrock replica of the Berlin wall to commemorate the twentieth anniversary of its fall. students were encouraged to graffiti the wall until at one pm it was smashed to pieces.

i really liked the intensity of this girl's artwork as i was taking photos for the school newspaper. this one didnt run b/c its "too artsy" for a newspaper but i really liked the intentional flare that i was able to achieve.

this probably isnt going to do well at all here... maybe a 5.0 if im lucky?? lets hope so. anyways i like it and think it really has character.

editing:
crop
cloning
curves
levels masked for a vignette
topaz adjust for adaptive saturation
topaz detail for tone control
2 x USM @ 10/250/0
USM @ 200/.3/0
resize
border

**fingers crossed**

Looks like magazine photo, well done. Not so well because there is something in the lower right that I don't know the name, a kind of rose colored line. 6.

I like the face that the lady is drawing. Seems like there are too many elements/angles/lines in the images to tell a cohesive story.

right vision, but the colors on the shot are not so much, ok, in the thought of this young writer probably there are more colors, but...
