 Smoke and mirrors. Without the smoke. ;) Probably get DNMC for appearing with my camera. But...... it is in the limelight and it did take the image. Raw conversion with Capture, sharpened, contrast adjust, plus saturation. Imported to CS2 touched up levels, sized, added frame, and saved for web.

nice picture , but this challenge is all about the camera and having you in the background so prominently does distract from the camera .

Overall look, feel and composition 0-1-2 = 1
Creativity 0-1-2 = 1
Quality and execution 0-1-2 = 1
WOW effect and first impression 0-1-2 = 0
