Changed levels, saturation and colour in Lightzone as the original was flat and washed out.

Hocus :: does Billy

have the ability to eject from the anus a glandular fluid that vaporizes with a popping sound when it hits the air, blinding the victim and confusing it with the noise.

?

look like it to me.

First entry: One Way

WB correction in Adobe Camera RAW + some contrast enhancement with curves. I may have desaturated everything but the blue, but I think it actually came out that way without it.

Beautiful. What's that then, and how was it done?

 

[chemn]

Rain falls on wall with graffiti, and the rest writes itself, I think?

Thanks chooch and Chemical needs. It's as CN says - a wet wall.
