Hahhaaaa - this is just for fun. I know it will bomb on the heels of the Woody challenge - ah heck, it would bomb on the heels of any challenge. :) Hope folks get a chuckle out of it anyway.

I have also no doubt someone will mention the weed in my lawn. :)

Ha!! Such a good pose. They work so well for you, you know? You must know just how to talk to them.

actually, this is what i meant as well with my previous (sarcastic) comment. i think this fits the challenge. i think the real "shoe horns" are the entries that are adjusted in their hues/colours to make the image purple.

ROFL! It's RED paint. :P

...just kidding, but I realized it could have been after went to the store and bought the purple. :)

Poor Woody! I don't get the title but this is well worth a 7.

Love the humor and presentation - especially in your attention to detail with the DOF and pose of the Woody. I hope voters appreciate how this was not an easy shot to capture.

I love this!!!! Shoehorn or not, this is one of my favorites!! The hand is blurry like it's in motion, and seems a little too sharpened, but the concept is great.
