 Thank you!!!
Very honored to be in Queen's Court and keep an HM!
Thank you to the team for helping me with the choice: I was not sure at all that my paper cut-out (attached to the saran wrap laying on iPad draped by some black cloth) was worth entering.
I was also stumbled about "crookedness" of main subject versus the background, so did both.:-) Mariuca, I did not think about Josephine Baker at that time (though after your words... :-)), but more about sad story of crooked man with his family of cat and mouse and no girl...

Nice use of a paper cut-out attached to the saran wrap laying on iPad draped by some black cloth.

I forgot to mention 40 or so attempts to figure out right focus with LenseBaby! :-)

Thank you, Andi!
