    A bizarre carnival held off-world.

    #1) Less foreground, more sky.

    #2 Way over-processed.

    #3 Nice title and text.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    LOL! Thanks for the comments.

    1. I had lots of sky but cropped it out because it was boring.

    2. It's supposed to be way over-processed! That was my point, at least in concept. I love playing with effects like that. The harshness and over saturation is what leads to #3 on your list. Some people like this sort of stuff, others hate it. Maybe I'll try to convert the image into a watercolor look when I have the time.

    3. The image reminded me of some old movie I once saw (title forgotten) about a traveling carnival from another world. Carnivals such as that can lead to only one thing: Trouble!

    Re: Offworld Carnival

    The processing works for me in this because of the nature of the subject. I think the cartoonish, graphic art look of this appeals to me in this vivid saturated Carnival scene.
    I do feel the crop is too tight and agree about more sky and less fg.
    An interesting image. . .glad to view it.
    please do not edit and repost my photos
