That Doesn't Look Like A Photo

Challenge #24 in the Technology Enabling Art series. Hosted by ProfHankD.

Challenge has finished

This is a challenge for photos that have been post-processed to not look like photos. It could be something as simple as a posterization or as complex as a custom "art filter." Your entry must include some text describing how you post-processed the image.

Announced:

Thursday, 14th June, 2012 (GMT)

Submissions:

Thursday, 21st June, 2012 – Wednesday, 27th June, 2012 (GMT)

Voting:

Thursday, 28th June, 2012 – Wednesday, 4th July, 2012 (GMT)

Processing rules:

The post-processing must not involve substitution of hand-drawn content; it should be a transformation of a single captured photo. Adding a canvas or other texture, or computer-generated effects like shaped flare, is permitted.

Capture date rules:

No restrictions.

Additional rules:

Say something about how you post-processed the image: an in-camera art filter, the oil painting filter in GIMP, etc. ENTRIES WITHOUT TEXT SAYING HOW THE IMAGE WAS PROCESSED WILL BE DISQUALIFIED!
No photographs of paintings, etc. -- the non-photographic look must derive from post-processing, not the original scene content.

These are the ducks that live in Boston´s Public Garden. To make this, I just hit the B&W button several times, adding B&W on top of B&W, then added some contrast.
