 A puzzle, put together, with two peices slightly raised by pennies, with their backs painted complimentary colours. The puzzle was sitting on a peice of glass on top of a bin. An SB-800 was inside the bin shooting upwards. Voila!

A few minor imperfections on the puzzle peices were cloned out, sharpening, levels, etc. All done in Lightroom 2. Final resize, sharpen, border and Save for Web done in The GIMP.

Nicely done Mark. This was a very nicely done entry. Love the idea of the painting them different colours on the back and raising them up and lighting from underneath. Very imaginative. :)

Go Snowmen!

This is interesting but I don't feel like the execution is 100% on target. Great colors and I like that we can see light coming through the cracks of the other pieces, but something is missing, at least for me, and I can't put my finger on what it is.
