This is a very tricky challenge, but I've seen some amazing photo's from other entries.

Here's my attempt at this challenge, I'm open to suggestions, comments, hate mail, give it all.

I'm pretty sure the image size is correct, no bigger than 800 on any side?

    How's this? I found it had to keep some grey in the circles because without it, there was no depth and it looked like a 2D drawing.

    Or how about this, does it fit the criteria?

    I really love the 8 Balls, they look fantastic! I agree though they look bettr brightened a little, but they need to still look spherical and keep their depth. It looks really great.

    Brett, both shots are very nice. I think the 8's cleaned up are better, did you try the unsharp mask for crispness? I also think just for the record is the better.
