 This iron was really used by my grandmother.
The top is almost rotten away, so I could only show the bottom - conveniently so I could hide the read light that was illuminating the interior and the steam coming off the fog machine :)

Very interesting, but the iron is right in the center, making it a little unattractive to the eye.

I like the lines of this photograph. The iron looks like a rustic dragon. I like it!!

I made a similar shot but did not send it 'cos it had no "WOW effect" since its lack of "inner power with fire"... Yours is much better, and i will vote 8 'cos the perfect execution and er... well... you know.... great idea! :)

Just a small critique: i think the lower part of the shirt is a bit distracting.
