Thank you all for the voting and the comments. It really was a joy to see my daughter and fiancee be a part of my photos. Also, always a good way to add to our collection here at work.

Gyaban, good sir.

You are always an inspiration. I always try to do my best to make sure I don't dabble on the Expert Challenge because of my lack in Photoshop, Lightroom any other processing involved.

But when I see an Expert Challenge, I know I will be treated to a fascinating story and the tone of the description that just puts me in the action.

Holy Bugger!!! Truly a first time for me having such a high place and score. Never did I realize I would've done so well. I am happy with how it went and I hope to learn from this experience although I will falter, I know there will always be that diamond-in-the-ruff that I can produce.

Thank you so much for everyone's vote and commenters. I look forward to giving my best in the future.

Ohhh!!! I have been tagged to submit my original. I hope I didn't do anything wrong.

Now we'll just have to see if this holds up. I have never been DQ'd for anything. Ok...Original submitted. Now for the verdict. XX Fingers crossed.

Again Thanks to everyone.

Thank you for critique and feedback Mr.WBanning and also to you Penny for your feedback. This was a challenge that I just wanted to try and do well in and I lost myself a bit on the dice and their detail. I also agree that the tightness on the left bottom corner to me didn't let the subject "breathe" enough or "expand it's wings" with all the free space going on at the right side of the picture.

These are things I will notice more in my shots and that not just the details but the whole compositions should be evened out.

Voyeuristic like. Love the nice, beauty of it. Beautiful with just the perfect amount lighting IMO.

If I saw this, I think I would've been scared the living daylight out of me. :)

Beautiful. I wish there were places like this where I can just let my imagination wander.
