Although I didn't break 6.0 on this one, I had a lot of fun doing it. Really appreciate your voting and comments.

Clever shot. I really like the lighting. It looks like it is coming from multiple directions, including behind the lenscap. DOF is just a little narrow IMO.

Cute setup; doesn't Canon or Minolta have a weapon in the air? This looks like a sure win for Nikon.

Very creative, great shot. How do you get your background to fade so well like that?

The shallow DOF distracts me from the saucer actually; my eyes are drawn to the blur in the foreground.
