    Thanks to the judges for including mine in the voting round.

    Well done everyone who entered, as Diva says we may have been short on numbers this time but not on imagination or skill looking at the entries.
    I will get round to commenting in the gallery over the next few days.

    Good luck to the finalists.

    um, wow...suprised to see mine up there! Haven't been around or shooting much lately but I sorta had a last minute idea for the challenge when my kiddo was playing legos, although it didn't quite pan out the same as in my head, but thought i'd chance it. Anyway great entries and best of luck to everyone!clap.gif

    The lighting for this photo was pretty unconventional. I used a MT-24EX flash, which is normally used for macro work. One head was positioned to the right of the camera and the other was bounced off the ceiling. I also used a 580EX II positioned to the right of the subject as a fill light.

    Thanks to everyone who voted, and congratulations to the other winners! <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/clap.gif&quot; border="0" alt="" ><o:p></o:p>
