 While hanging around waiting for others to finish work, I spotted these large polystyrene numbers. This is the closest I could get to 10 with the numbers that were available: a two, three threes and a nine plus two multiplication signs. The decimal point is a tub of plumbing compound I found in a workshop when I went hunting.

I think that this is one of the best shots in this challenge. Should have scored much higher

Did you take those numbers Home with you? (say stuffed them up your Jumper?). They would make an wicked entry into a rule of Thirds.

Really Like the perspective.

i honestly considered this to be rather fantastic, and promptly awarded your picture a 9. i'm somewhat dismayed it ended up 72nd, because it was one of my three favourites. the in-your-faceness of the numbers, their colour and size, are visually stunning. my only real criticism is the way it's been cropped; i feel that if you lost the bottom third or half, and made the shot squarer / more landscaped then i think it would feel more balanced; there just seems to be too much floor. but beyond that, i thought it was great, creative and huge fun.

being super pinickity thoguh, the title would have been better if you said it was to zero decimal places...
