Post Challenge... wow, i really didn't expect to be this far down in the rankings... my score took a nose dive over the weekend. too bad.

Could have been better with candle in pic or spools of thread maybe, but I've already spent too much time on the challenge :)

the gold tones are a nice touch and the silhouette works well with the figurines

Those elves look suspiciously troll-like ;-) Nice lighting.

I like it, though I think perhaps a touch more intensity on the silhouette (curves or levels adjust) might have given it some more of that high scoring "snap".

This is cute and the warm light is nice, would've liked to have seen a little more light on the subjects.
