 got DQ for double-image in the framing challenge. ended with a 6.087, 39th. i was happy... but sh*t happens!

Wasnt too hard to setup. just took 3 lilies, placed them on a black backround, then placed a pane of glass 30 cm above it. We then took a rope, dipped in lighter fluid, which we set on the glass in the shape of a square and lit. took some snaps of that.
we got lucky enough to get a good shot on the second try. The DQ came in when i placed a border around it that was made to cover all imperfections around the flame itself. I would have just spot-edited it, but it was basic rules.
thanks to buro, kory and laura for their help.

I still think it's a cool shot,
And you went through a lot of trouble to create it.
I'm sorry you were DQ'd

To avoid this,
I actually printed all of my images and framed them, then took the photo.
It's too bad :-(
