All done at the last minute (well, the last 4 hours actually lol). Started as one thing - ended as another.

OK, I had a lot of fun doing this shot and hopefully improved my PS skills in the process. Thanks for the kind and encouraging comments. I'm very happy with a TT finish.
I wanted a desolate looking background but could not acquire a suitable image within the time-frame. On the last night of the challenge my wife handed me a plastic egg carton and asked me to drop it in the recycle bin. So the background is a field of plastic egg boxes. I wasn't completely happy with the final look but it was too late to find a substitute.
What I like about the 'expert' challenges is that they make you think and when you think, one idea often leads to another. You can also discover new things as you go along. That won't happen if you don't give it a try.
