 I love Pink Floyd. I heard them for the first time in 1978. Then I saw them in concert twice in the 80's and once in the early 90's.

When the challenge came up, I had all kinds of ideas, and dismissed them for a couple of reasons. I'm too busy to do much in the way of setup...and my camera's just not up to the job.

So instead, I did what any conscientious DPCer would do...I took a picture of my ass!

I bet I'm not the only person who'll be submitting one of these. So, I'm looking forward to seeing some posteriors with much greater appeal than mine.

Obviously, given the nature of my ass, I don't expect it to do well. But to leave one of my all time favourite bands without a tribute (feeble, flabby and pimply though it may be) was something I couldn't do.

Before the death-threats come pouring in...rest assured, this is the last time I will subject you all to a close-up of my back-side. Frankly, I'm not going there again myself.

Shine on!

Um... wow. I can't say I like the subject matter personally but you did this very well technically! Composition.. lighting.. detail - all really fit with the "moon-up-in-the-sky" idea. Great job.

Very cool, I love your creativity. The calibration seems to be dead on with my computer, and the photo is awesome. Good Luck.

I had this suggested to me by friends and laughed histerically at the idea. Well done. Could do with a little more contrast I think.
