Don't take this the wrong way, but my five year old LOVES the 2500 and considers it "his." He never misses an opportunity to take photos with it when he sees it in my bag. A while back I posted a photo taken with this camera myself. I have a lot of respect for what it will do.

No, no... I like it. I've used this technique myself and knowing that camera and how vivid the colors could be, I was pretty sure it was intentional. I find the subject matter interesting, and I think your treatment enhances it.

And yes, I always welcome seeing originals of photos that have been post-processed, because it helps me to see and perhaps therefore learn from it.

Nice job with a very capable little camera.
