Cool shot, aside from the obvious clown/jester.  What is this?

I like the muted colors and texture. Not sure about the cut off chin. But fun.

Yeh I felt the same way about the chin, so I thought to myself, why not just go crazy with cutting stuff off. So I did a quick edit and thought to myself, this would make a pretty nice wallpaper for something

I think for me, you succeeded in going creepy. I do not like clowns or jesters. Having said that, I do like the texture and muted colors.

tganiats: I'm never averse to tight crops; in this case I had no idea what I was going for when I took the photo.

SN: okay, I like that. Very good. That does help the image. Darn you.

This is a hot air balloon. The chin was lost in tents on the ground, as the image was captured at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, from a distance. You can see the tents in the lower left corner. Changing the crop will be easy enough; the sky was crystal clear that morning, making extending the right side simple, then adjusting the treatment layers.

Thanks!
