Hehe, I have one of these sitting on my computer too. Nice concept, the bokeh really adds something to your image.

For a set up shot with a figurine, this is really quite interesting!

What a creepy gargoyle. Perfect BOKA, lots of cool circles. You seem to be one of the only ones to understand this challenge. This one gets a ten in my book...hands down
