Yes, indeed :) But still, it is clearly an "edited" picture, whether there
is one single original or not. Similarly there are sometimes beautiful
panorama's composed from several originals. I think the general idea should
be that all should be allowed to participate, but if it is overedited, the
jury should of course not call them a winner :) It doesn't disqualify them
from the contest though.

Hi Susana,
we indeed discussed this in Berlin as well. In the Netherlands we had
some
images overly edited ( for
example
http://www.flickr.com/photos/drutenonline/5040086616/in/pool-1516413@N22/
and
http://www.flickr.com/photos/lumperjack/3107302684/in/pool-1516413@N22/ .
We decided in Berlin that we would leave it up to
the jury, assuming that
this specific issue would be covered sufficiently by the "useful on
Wikipedia" jury instruction. It might be indeed a good idea to suggest to
always also submit the original.
Of course editing and then submitting is only allowed if the photo is own
work, and editing other people's work would not result in a valid new
submission.
This picture is typical example of HDR - in case of HDR - there is no
single original... HDR-s are made as a mix of set of shots of one
picture. HDR is quite often a very usefull as a documentary -
especially for night shots and poor light conditions. I think for such
a cases the jury might decide if the the picture is OK - or it is
over-edited... Just general requirement for good-quality pictures in
Commons could be used:
