Since the advent of programs like Photoshop and mobile editing apps, we have been seeing a large number of digitally altered photographs. These images, whether created for humor or for art, have taken over the Web -- in heartwarming stories, creative experiments and the like.
Last week, we partnered with Hewlett-Packard to bring you our latest Mashable Photo Challenge, centered around digital photo manipulation.
We challenged you to take a stab at editing your photos in such an extreme way that they would transform into completely new images.
From abstract mirror art and inverted colors to double exposure photographs and 'Photoshopped' portraits in silly scenes, we saw an impressive variety of edits.
Scroll through our favorite images, featured below. And check out the rest of the submissions shared using the hashtags #ExtremeEditing and #HPBendTheRules here.
