    Well, he was hit by a towel so that might've caused that, I think his head is not in its correct position too.

    Haha, that's awesome.

    I have killed some mosquitos in my backyard with a paint roller. I happened to be painting my house, and was cleaning up after the rollers in the backyard. And I happened to steamroll a couple. Hilarious. So satisfying.

    Superwaxer, care to elaborate on your post processing? This photo and last week's were pretty clearly dodged in photoshop to bring up the levels below the horizon, not exactly a straight RAW conversion. I dont have a problem with this technique, but your application of it is pretty extreme. I just wonder if others understand whats going on. You don't often find the foreground to be brighter than the sky during sunset. You aren't required to state your post-processing at all, but I just don't think you should post misleading information.
