I know I'm pushin it. Hopefully just a placeholder. I have some other ideas but short on time as usual.

Pretty durn basic - RAW, curves, levels, crop, resize. (I did the burning during pre-post-processing) :)

If I am unable to replace this, I can at least look forward to all the Woody-Hater comments. :)

Bumping you up a few simply because it strikes me as hillarious that they technically don't have faces! Never thought of that before. (easily amused) 10.

Sucks that you had to burn your woody to get this shot. Well done, nonetheless.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/30/2007 06:54:41 PM
Great lighting, and I'm very amused at the reference :-)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I might have picked a different subject or title it is hard to see the small wooden person i might have draped some cloth over this to see different effects, keep shooting and see what comes up.

Excellent.

I am surprised that I like this! I really do, the lighting is great and these little guys are surprisingly emotional!!

Screw the voters who will mark you down because they hate woodies. This gave me a good laugh. Great job!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/29/2007 06:52:36 PM
omg!!! I feel his pain! I really do. I can't get enough of these images, as they feel so real to me. How do you do make wooden figures convey human emotions? Well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/29/2007 04:02:04 PM
Why the square format?
And. Woody's in a sterile environment are really hard to get emotional about, even with a little scorching and a title that suggests something horrible.

emotionless

Well done - It's the first time I have liked one of these shots - Great lighting and tones very nice.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/28/2007 03:05:24 PM
LOL...how does one capture an emotion with two Woodies! well done!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/28/2007 02:04:39 PM
Nice idea, but If you had flames in the background, even if just a bit, maybe burn down a toothpick cabin it would have really added to this and pushed the score higher.

The wood people appear again - I love them and am now looking out for them each time I vote! Another great one to add to the collection.

07/25/2007 07:25:28 PM
Good grief! (Pun intended)LOL What a very different way to use these figurines! Oddly enough, it really strikes me. Very creative!

  Photographer found comment helpful.

Woohoo! Great lighting and composition, and clearly no faces! The border looks weird; I think leaving it solid black looks better.
