 Sorta last minute shoot.

Grabbed a frosted globe light cover and a few glow sticks, biked down to the beach and waited for the right light..

Noticed at this point my battery in the S95 was very nearly dead... Ok, well crap... I figured I might as well try...

I think I'll redo this idea some time, as I do like the results, but really wish that I had more than four frames worth of battery....

Interestingly, the water inside of it created a nice lighting effect inside of the globe.

I scored this an 8 and have a bit of a tough time explaining why. It was my gut reaction to the image, so it undoubtedly deserves it. I know like the sharp lines, I like the rule of thirds with 3 different textures. The small light in the background on the right is a perfect counter to the light in the foreground on the left. Not sure how many of these things were intentional lol, but this is my highest rated image of the challenge nonetheless. Keep up the good work.

reminds me of a scene from the movie "Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou" starring Bill Murray.
Put a big smile on my face with that. :)

Nicely executed with a touch of modern surrealism. 7
