Well no surprise there, Paul - that was a stunning picture and a well deserved win!
However, the price of victory is that I will continue to beg, plead and cajole ::bats eyelashes:: for a behind-the-scenes on how you did it :D Pretty please?
And thanks to those who supported my bit of silliness in this round - WOW! I'm very excited! I've learned a ton in every round in which I've participated, but this one in particular pushed me into the realm of ::gulp:: lighting. I'm still feeling my way through it by trial and error, but at least I AM trying it which I never would have without the encouragement and guidance of y'all, so another big thank you from me!
As a very conservative traditionalist when it comes to the definition of photography, I'm absolutely tickled with the outcome here. It was a great challenge (thanks, Emily!) and resulted in so many unique and interesting images, but truly, Paul, your efforts were in a class by themselves and deserved such a landslide win.

Congrats Paul! You do realize that one of these times we're going to make you go play in the deep end of the pool by yourself though. Thank you to those who put me in the top 5. It reinstills my confidence that I'm doing something right and makes me want to try even harder.
