Thanks for the ribbon Don, I really appreciate it. However, being mistaken for you is somewhat disturbing. Thanks for the blue h2, greatly appreciated!
A piece of welding glass, taped over the front of my 50mm lens, allowed for the 30 sec. exposure needed to wipe out the background personage.

I really hope this scores well. It's definitely outside of the box and done well. I normally don't like the black and white processing that leans towards the gray side (non-contrasty), but this I don't mind at all.
I will be honest that I don't understand the connection between the title and the image. I can guess, but it's not clear.
nicely done! this is a really cool shot and a nice change from some of the boring hand shots. I think the lack of contrast is really gunna kill you in the DPC world. Actually I think even by typical standards the image could use a bit more.
