Some nice shots this time. I'll just comment on a few.

My favorite was Peter Newman's Strawberry picture. It is interesting
even without the special effect.

And "Strings"... I have to say I looked at that several times. Looked
like there might have been a cut-out, though, which threw me off.

I liked Bowser's fisheyed seagull a lot, although there were some
background distractions.

I'm also a sucker for Pete Atkin's "Seafront Storage". Enhanced,
surely, but pleasant.

And, finally, I have to admit "Puddles" made me chuckle. Sometimes it
IS all about the subject.

No knock against the rest, I'm just lazy and it is late.

She is quite real. No cutout. Just some color enhancement of her Bikini
and mile sharpening the luminosity layer in LAB.

If you zoom in on the edge of her body, it looks like a thick
outline. Maybe sharpening gone bad, who knows? It is noticeable to
me, that's all I'm saying. Not passing any "judgement".
