I was practicing my 'studio' type shots and lighting when I recalled the picture from the Perspective challenge and tried this.
Some cropping and adjustments to brightness and contrast.

Thanks everyone, especially Deannda! I knew going in that such a specific reference to a picture months ago might not go over, but figured what the heck!
Still working on this sort of 'studio' shot, so thanks again, and I'll keep trying to get those silly feet in focus. I think the problem was that the camera was at 'head' height, tilted forward to get everything in the shot; leaving the feet at a distance relative to the top. I'm happy with the lighting, though!
Funny picture. Nice feeling of action. It's a bit grainy and blurry though. Also some more light or maybe just playing with curves in Photoshop would help.
This would get a 10 from me just because of the "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" factor but alas, the focus is just slightly off so you'll have to settle for a 9 from me, LOL!
