Well, I've been waiting to enter a member's challenge since I got my blue shirt, but had been stumped as to anything to enter for any of the ones that have come up since I got my blue shirt, so Lepidus offered me this idea and I snatched it up. I hope it does well, otherwise he'll probably wish I hadn't mentioned his name, lol! man, I feel bad for my little ol' minolta, it just doesn't hold up to the 30D, so I'm having a hard time wanting to use it, oh well
for this, I used a flashlight with an orange filter on it and a 30sec exposure. postprocessing was easy, just a slight curves adjustment, healing for wall bumps, USM, bump contrast a bit and save it, hoping for at least a 5

Really liked this one and gave it a 7. That's despite the fact that I'm usually not too keen on dolls (personal preference). I'm torn about the orange light; though it does give the image a lot of warmth.
Man... this is just great. Your use of light is phenomenal for catching the feeling of the picture. Almost feel sorry for the little doll. This is probably one of my favorites so far. 10 in my book.
