Twenty minutes until rollover for this challenge...

I had a "validation request" during day one.

I had hoped for a validation during voting, since... yeah... I shot this, printed them out, cut them out, positioned them, edited just a bit of bad cut marks... the legs still looked "dead" (thanks for that comment... truly)... and then submitted.

Ended up with a score less than my average.

Ya win some.

Ya lose some.

Some are rained out.

Carry on.
*sigh*

I see a little blooper: The dog's front left paw isn't resting on any surface but other than that it's quite a clever shot. Good editing work. Using the same lighting for each of your poses would help the overall image as well but then again. I couldn't have done it better. I like it!

Must have been fun doing this - you did the work, you took the picture - I don't see how it wouldn't be legal. I keep looking for you in there though (people, pets and me).

You are one sick puppy. And I mean that in the best of ways :-)

Ha! Looks way too time consuming to be legal. I think it's obvious that the gear are cutouts.

I hope you will explain how you did this using advanced editing rules. I am assuming it is legal and giving you an 8 for doing perfect cut-outs (if that is what they are)

Did you really make a bunch of cardboard cutouts of yourself and the dog for this? If so, that's quite the dedication!

Interesting concept.
Although, the "model"'s color looks a little bluish... Legs almost look dead. And it doesn't flow seamlessly, they look like cardboard cutouts. Unless, of course, they are cardboard cutouts, which would explain it.
Love the idea, however.
