Would anyone else like to play with the raw foto?
No cutouts? Drop shadows? B&W conversions?

I'll give it a couple more days.

There are some excellent renditions of the Bees and Coneflowers posted to our first Edit Challenge. Everyone did very well. Isn't it fun to work on someone else's foto and make it into what you think it should look like??  ;) ;D

I am going to declare Øivind Tøien the "Winner" of Edit Challenge #1 because I like the way he chose a smaller well-composed photo from the larger one in his first posted foto.
John Geerts also went in that direction.

Øivind, when you have a moment, please start a thread for Edit Challenge #2 and provide a Dropbox (or other) link to a raw file download you have chosen for us all to work on.

Note to newcomers:  We usually let the Edit Challenge run about a week or until there has been about 24 hours with no posts.

When I designed the format I named it "Raw Editing Contest"

Øivind Tøien is a very worthy winner. I like to take an editing course with him
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

Thanks for choosing me to carry on Andrea, and for the kind words Frank. I will continue in the spirit of this first thread so will keep title accordingly.
I will start the new thread shortly.
