 This sucks. I know. I got rushed at the last minute and couldn't get it to do what I wanted it to. I had practiced with my light source and had all these neat little beams of light, but could not, for the life of me, get it replicated tonight.

Congrats to snowflakejen in teh ms tournament, because I am sure if she has anything at all, it will beat this. Had it not been for the tournament, I probably would have just skipped.

Also, if this was advanced editing, I could fix a few small places, but I should have been more careful when shooting.

I think the single beam makes the statement well. But I can understand your frustration. I'll echo both photojournaliste and posthumous comments as well, I think they sum it up nicely :) Great stuff.

Its great and crative shot... but it feels like something is bit overdone in curves.
