 With this picture, I wanted to point out the hard everyday life of a Lego Firefighter…

Had to sought the lego box from my early days before I was able to start. Light was made by my pocket lamp coated with orange tissue paper. Watered the table to get reflections on the ground.

When I did experiments with the smoke (that came from a cigar), I figured out, that the smoke falls down to the water and stays there, if you blow the smoke very slowly thru a trinking straw. I was able to able to create stunning scene with that – I really have to get more pictures with this trick.Water came from a syringe.

Shot in raw mode.

Great prespective. I think it was out of the box thinking all the way. The coloring and water of the image are great.

Very creative photo. I like the use of lighting and composition. The border also works well.

i don't see perspective emphasized in this shot. Besides, the white balance is seriously off.
