Ultra-wide mistake

[starriderrick]

Candid shot with the camera facing up on the table at a local restaurant.

Some how I ended up in this ultra-W/A capture.I felt the shot had promise, extensive editing was required to arrive at the final version.I cloned the 2 lights from another image. Any and all feedback greatly appreciated.

The first image is extremely classy, i love it. How did you bring back the detail in the lights? That's so cool how you reconstructed the image and cloned out that guy's head..I would have no idea how to do that.

Nothin' fancy... White balance adjust + color balance ,copy / paste, clone work...blend, scribble. I'm still a rookie in the photo shop side of photography. I liked this edted version as well.

I appreciate the encouraging feedback.

I like the first one, would have never guessed you cloned the light, the sheen of the lights is a great effect. I think the photo has the right symmetry, I like it, but I know like with your 4th July shots of the flag and firework (yes I remember, that's how good the shots were) you take some great perspectives and risk.
