Yet Another Photoshop Contest

Ladies and gents, here’s the winner of the Bestweekever.tv Matthew Mcconaughey Photoshop contest, where an image of him working out at the beach was mangled enhanced, for our viewing pleasure (certainly not his viewing pleasure I’m sure). Actually, I was voting for this:
