This is our youngest son, on a table many feet away from the foreground frame.
We're on vacation, so I have no lights. You should SEE what I did to get enough light here... *sigh*
Setup shot available, if anyone's interested.
Post Challenge: Day Two into voting dawned with a 7+ score after 100+ votes... and with a validation request. "No problem," I thought...
And then it came back, DQ'd for date.
I knew they'd made a mistake so off I went to find the file and prove to them the error of their ways.
Month - correct *check*
Day - correct *check*
Year - 2010 *WHAT?! I took this NEXT YEAR!?!*
*heavy sigh*
My regular camera's in the shop... so I'm using my back-up. Never thought to check the year... *sigh*
Totally my fault... I feel so bad about my error when my son worked so hard at this for me.
Live and learn. *sigh again*
Setup for Michelle: My son sat on the far table.

What a great shot, to trip over something so small. Just think, next year when they do "It's all about Position II", you are ready to go. ;-) Oh, wait!!! No entering the same image in more than one challenge.... sigh...
Still a really excellent image, and a shame that a camera date killed it, after all the work. I'd have given you a 10 on this one.
Too bad about the DQ on the dates.....But come on...wow! you could take a picture in the future and get the outcome now!!!! Anyway, love the idea and picture.... better luck next time!
I'm happy because is obvious you will win next year with this excellent image, and will be very well deserved. Many will protest, but rules are rules. Congratulations in advance, Lydia, great job !!!
