I love this photo and I really see very little processing other than the slight vignetting on the sides. The lighting is amazing!

The only post processing here is that I was originally near the beach, so I had to add the trees, and then since it was summer, I had to photoshop all the leaves out, but once that was done it was only a matter of multiplying the book (which was a .gif file I found through google) and changing the colors of the covers, warping some of the binders open, and finally adding the young lady into the foreground. I cleaned up some of the edges, put the shadow in place, and called it a day. Other than that, it's a pretty straight forward photograph. I don't know what the problem is.

I somehow agree with jrjrjrjr. BUT, the picture is outstanding. I just feel sorry to the rest of the members who posted a more deserving reward (IF THE RULES WERE ACTUALLY FOLLOWED BY THE JUDGES).

As part of a respectable company that leads a team of graphic artists, I find this photograph OVER PROCESSED. It' is indeed a beautiful picture (NO DOUBT ABOUT IT). If I was just given the opportunity to jude, I could have included this in the magazine ONLY, ONLY if the 'OVERT PROCESSING' is NOT A RULE. I therefore conclude that the jpgmag judges did a bad job in choosing this picture as well as some (over processed) pictures that were included in the magazine (dream theme).

I never imagined this image would inspire such great divides. And having taken the photograph, I can say that there is much less post-processsing than everyone seems to think. Is it really so far-fetched of an idea that someone would take the time to compose and create an image before they snap the shutter and not in Photoshop afterwards?

What are these book things you're talking about? I've never heard of them. I think you're making them up entirely. Making them up in Photoshop. ;)
