Hi

Thanks to Jane and Trevor for putting up the last two SFTW challenges, whilst I was away. It was fun looking at the images when I returned.

I snapped this statue using my phone in Morro Jable, Fuerteventura. She is looking out to sea and the statue, by Juan Miguel Cubas, title is called “Homenaje a las mujeres costeras”  which I believe translates as “Tribute to coastal women”. So, for this week's challenge, can you show us more of the story, why is she there, what is she looking at?

Anything goes as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright etc.

Anyone and everyone is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert.

There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!

When posting back your edited images please use jpeg and downsize to 1200px on the long side.

To download the image below in jpeg format with ICC color profile (sRGB) and without the forum scaling artefacts , right click and then use Save Image As /Save Target As (or similar depending on your browser).

Dave

    that bottle looks a little too full to be realistic don't you think?

    That is true indeed, Graham, but all the empty ones are in a heap in the far end of the chest, the other new ones in the near end along with the boxes of cigars, to last the long wait.

    Hi

    Trevor - the rising sand is good but the boat is excellent. I love the wooden texture.

    Graham - she looks like she is being carried home nursing a hangover !

    Hi

    Jacob - A quick start, you posted less than an hour after the challenge was made! I like the use of the previous SFTW beach and sea images.

    Hothwampa - nice job with the Medusa hairstyle and the mirror.

    Rista - Another good use of a previous SFTW image as she cools her feet.

    Keep them coming

    Dave

    I tried to get the angle(s) right for mirroring what she saw, Dave.

    Thank you for inviting me to put up one of my vacation pics from last fall, Dave. It was a lot of fun being a guest host, and I'm thinking I will add all of the submissions to my vacation album — they were awesome! Welcome back to SFTW, Dave!
