 Only Woody is lucky enough to find an iPod buried in the snow.... can he extract it with the earphone cable ?????

It was fun doing this, but polystyrene snow don't half make a mess.... and for all you gadget lovers, yes, I know its not the latest iPod but beggars can't be choosers :-)

THANK YOU !!! I was beginning to think I'd only ever have the one ribbon ;-) So thanks for all the comments (sorry if you are offended by iPods, but there you go)and your votes.... I really enjoyed doing this one. But I think I'll still be finding the odd styrofoam ball for some weeks yet.

Way cool perspective, congrats on your ribbon! Good idea to leave the screen dark, and I like the sheen on the "snow" beads.

BOO iPODS

I don't like monopolies.

I don't like consumerism.

Why did they have a holiday catalog contest? UGH

Merry Christmas..LOL..because I had NO idea what that was. I have never seen an Ipod, so I didn't have a clue and my score reflected it. Would have made a nice Shallow DOF shot though..LOL. In any case, congrats!!

Really nice shot, the woody adds humor. I like the shallow depth of field, the lighting and the colors as well.

Best woody shot I've seen in a while. Well composed, well captured. Great job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

What a cute idea! Love the way the focus is on the center and the front beads are blurred, it directs attention right to the IPod.

I like the humor of this one. The syrofoam would have been better as ice, but might ruin the ipod. Nice composition. Good work.

You really capture the gift of the moment; I loved the definition of the foam balls in combination with the I Pod. I'm sure Santa wants one; next try you can turn it on.
