@catcharun: welcome back to u, and ur first guess is right on the money ! actually, no.

@boo: welcome back ! hmm, ur guess is interesting since it is something that would be physically near the subject and thematically related to the subject. that's the clue for today.

@sai: yup, negative image is replacing each pixel with its complimentary color, for eg. white instead of black, red instead of cyan etc.
