Cool. That tongue looks like a flattened brain.

Did you bump up the saturation on these?

[Aussie_bluey]

Hi Khaos,
No I did not play with the saturation, I don't usually play with the saturation on any of my pics, I usually darken or lighten in curves and sometimes a little contrast. Most were taken on bright sunny days, and I usually use fill flash to even out the darker spots. :):
