 Thank you for the ribbon!!!!
Thanks also for the super score and the comments.
I lit the two objects from the side and towards the back. I didn't intend entering this one but I wasn't happy with the lighting on the one I planned entering so I changed my mind at the last minute.
Now I'm glad I did ;-)))

A logo on the protractor would have rounded this shot off beautifully.

I thought cloning to that extent was against the rules. Guess it all depends on who you are.

I see you must have cloned out the word Germany as well as a logo, based on the reflection at the bottom. I thought this amount of cloning was outside the rules. Nice pic, but rules are rules. Many others may have had a chance if they would have done this also.

I see the water, it must be a wet surface on the bottom!
