Such an difficult task this week! I feel like a woman selecting a favorite pair of shoes.
Men also have this problem. At least some of us anyhow.

Go for it 👍.Is there a chance for me to change my entry?
The theme for BWPC week 87 as chosen by week 86 winner, Solo, is people at work. This can be doing their job, studying at school or any other form of work. This will close on Wednesday 17th February 2016 at 23:59 GMT.
Additionally going forwards, large composite images will not be allowed in the BWPC. Having discussed it I do not think that it is within the spirit of the competition, much like excessive photoshopping is not which was discussed at the creation of this competition. If you have any questions about this feel free to ask me.
I don't want to end up with a Nikon situation here...
Why are you the winner of week86? I think we both got 3 votes. Did I mis something?The theme for BWPC week 87 as chosen by week 86 winner, Solo, is people at work.

Just a FYI - my ability to contribute to regular comps is somewhat constrained now being primarily on film. Two weeks isnt enough for me to shoot and develop, so unless the rules are relaxed a bit to allow pics of a subject shot prior to the announcement of the current comps topic, I'm going to be patchy. I'll do my best though 👍
Thanks for the answer. havent seen that one pass by.Apparently so, as there was a tie-breaker.
It wasn't really looking at your image as I'm happy with that style of editing it was more that there had been an image submitted before that was more than one image stitched together which is not really something I'm interested in having in this competition. I am well aware it's difficult to enforce but I'm happy to allow editing of single images and whilst yes you can tell that yours is edited so are many of the other entries but that is a level to which I'm happy to accept.First off, sweet theme! 👍
Secondly I'm curious if this is as a result of not only the Nikon thing but also my image submitted for the best of? I say this because it's could look like a composite, and was obviously photoshopped. It's actually not a composite though. It was shot outdoors and harshly backlit. The photoshop that was done is a heavy S curve, some erasing of any details (not many) that weren't blown out from the curves adjustment around the edges of the subject as well as some removal of hairs and fuzz on the jacket. Most of which could easily be done in the darkroom.
If it's too much you can remove it from the contest but I was never aware of this discussion on photoshopping of images. I do think it's a tricky subject and rule to enforce. It seems highly subjective. I'll go back and try to find the discussion so I can be up to date.
I do believe you're talking about me in that essence (which I'm completely fine with, never knew stitches weren't allowed). But to be fair, and imo, that was my best shot(s) of 2015, and getting into astrophotography was what I have been trying to do for a little over a year and a half now.It wasn't really looking at your image as I'm happy with that style of editing it was more that there had been an image submitted before that was more than one image stitched together which is not really something I'm interested in having in this competition.

Does that clear it up for you at all?
