OK folks it's that time again .
Rules are simple:
The rules of the game are simple. Edit the photo in this post, in anyway that you see fit. Change it, boost the colors, give it a border, change the background, just use your imagination. Then come back and tell us how you did it. Easy as that!
Now, let's see what you would do!

If you would like your image to be posted please send me a medium sized photo (html code would be a plus) and a link to a larger version

I messed with 3 layer copies, changed their levels, and made the first two transparent. HDR ish.

This was all ready a great image so I figured skulls and wierd stuff just would enhance it at all.I was hoping for that first morning sun light where everything feels so fresh, new and warm. Keep in mind that each step is always done on a new layer
* Auto enhance
* I used a series of filters on this one from Nik Color Effects, The first one I used was Midnight, lowered opcaity until I liked what I saw
* Sunshine and again, played with opacity and settings until I got to a point that I liked
* Skylight filter
* Graduated Blue
* Slight Vingette

Took a shot at making it vintage.

Duplicated layer, inverted colors, set that layer mode to color and lowered opacity.
Made a new layer, filled with a tannish color, set that to color as well and lowered opacity.
Made a new layer and added a vignette.
High pass filter over it all, radius 10. Lowered opacity again.

Thank you Windrider, I really liked your interpretation.As to illusion map. In gimp there is a filter group,under "Map" and in this group there are several; filters one of which is"illusion" and this has 2 modes. I used number 2, and below is the picture just changed with mode 1

Changed first with Topaz Clean2.
Then I used a function in Paint Shop pro called 'infrared'.
