 I'm going to have nightmares cloning out dust - ALT, click click, ALT click...

So, here I am shooting for a challenge with my new 5dmk2, I'm so happy! I just got it yesterday and had to through the manual every now and then to find how some things are set up. And the lens is huge! I didn't expect it to be this big.

This shot was pure fun! Many things didn't come out as expected, of course but nothing could spoil the fun. My original idea was to set the scene on a black marble but that was hard to find on a Sunday night (the basement being the only source). So, this is set on a black box with lots of scratches on it. Also, the lighting was not so good again, but at least I've got three light sources.

PP, just curves, levels and some contrast.

This got the Blue Hat :)
