    Its a great shot Dave. Certainly fits the ambient theme. Whether or not it will be a contender is anyones guess....pretty cool.

    This is an interesting perspective - behind the deer caught in the headlights.

    I think this is a fantastic shot that tells a story.

    Wonderful shot. You have told a common story from an uncommon point of view.

    I think a got a better shot than the deer shot.

    My brother bought a strobe light at some used goods store, so I thought I'd give it a try at the studio.
    This light is pretty poor quality. It seems like it reflects back, and when the light comes out, it puts out
    a very uneven light. You get kind of bars of light.
    I ended up putting the strobe behind an umbrella to try to even it out.
    Then the light was really weak.

    I may try to find one that puts out a more even light and try a few more things.

    Anyway, with a ton of post work, I got one out of 54 shots to look OK, as long as it's real small. :D
    I have this entered at the moment.

    This is shot at 8 seconds, f3.2, ISO 800

    I call this: Guitar Hero, Old School.

    Your strobe shot is a great shot for the competition as it highlights one of the unique qualities of a strobe. Well executed. Your photo of the deer is timeless and amazing. I could see it in a print ad for headlights. I'm glad I'm not the one having to make the final choice. Both are great shots. Good luck!
