 Ok voters, let's see what you make of a one-capture shot at 10mm with the camera at a skewed angle on the tripod :-)

I anticipate a validation request here on the added-text rule. However, the text is already existing on the board in the original background shot; I simply painted it with luminescent paint and did an overlay of the more luminescent letters over the shot. Grand total of two images.

pp: shot RAW, crop, ccw rotate, brightness/contrast, clone, dodge and burn, place text overlay, blur, resize, sharpen, save for web.

Nicely POV'd, works for me. Does look like she's pinned under the floorboards.

Nice try. But it has several flaws: the wall sockets help the viewer to understand the real plane. External light is too harsh and overexposed and the blue text is way too strange. Anyways, one of the best ideas.

Strange, King-esque.
