 Last hour entry, should have arranged the crayons better, the bright spots are actually specs of glitter mixed into the wax of the crayons - I didn't think about them showing up like this beforehand.
I still have lots to learn about lighting.

All auto settings including macro.

Editing in ACDSee and/or PSP7: crop, auto levels, blackpoint, gamma, sharpen, saturation, brightness, salt & pepper, re-size, border.

The title is great! I think it would have been a 10 if it were a little bit brighter...I'll go with a 9.
