Thanks for all the votes and comments!

I took the photo out of the plane on the way home from Guatemala, without any ideas of how to use it! I threw this one together within 6 hours of the deadline....which is why, as some have pointed out, some of the clothes look flat. I fully agree and it's driven me crazy! But I had little time to spare and come up with options.... Either way this image was fun to imagine and put together, and I'm thrilled that others liked it as well!

*eyeroll* to hell with the clothes looking flat, I think that's an amazing piece of PhotoChop to whip up in such a short span of time! Grats on the blue!

Congratulations Samantha! I can't believe how fast you are for creating those images. Finding an idea, sketching it, shooting all the photos, assembling them... in 6h! And a blue :)

Hehe, the out of focus bra. :)

Looked at this for a long time. It might possibly be better without the green garment which is the most eye-catching and yet the least convincing. All the same it's a joy to behold - congrats on another great result! (I haven't spotted Gyaban in this challenge.)

Samantha this is, as usual, a great image. I don't know if this works for the challenge. It doesn't even try to be real. I'm extremely curious to see voters' behavior.

Next to sitting in the middle seat between a big, smelly guy and a screaming baby, THIS is the worst thing you have to deal with when flying coach.
