i like the idea. but if you're going to do this shot, you've got to be dead on with the drip hanging off the end and a perfect white balance

...tell Inspector Jones from Child Protective Services he can wait, we're busy in here. She sure seems happy though.

nice setup, i didn't realize how clever this was until i looked down and saw the title...though with fair skin like that, I do believe the Mediterranean sun would have killed Caesar before Brutus did.

interesting image. i like how the flame seems to be yearning to light the other. like it is the spirit of the living trying to bring back that of the dead that has just recently gone out. i think i've been on dpchallenge to long as i wish there was more contrast and not so much of a yellow cast

I'd like to see a revolution on this site. Unfortunately, very few men among them has any idea of photography ;) Oh and the image, yes it's clever as always.

this photo has a strong message...i like photo's that actually impart something to think about. Your intoxicated title adds a bit of uncomfortable humor to the message...i'm curious if that was your intent.

"Eat my socks"

I am left wondering what prompted this poor soul to have to eat your socks. I'm also left wondering if Bart Simpson the European version requests this instead of shorts. I'm afraid other than a bit of fuzz on the end your sock it more resembles a piece being cut out of my monitor...not that, that effect isn't very interesting on it's own.

"I won't be long."

interesting contrast. obviously this would really work if the long was written across the roof of the building that was about to collapse. Then again maybe if you called it "Not Long"... or then again maybe you were going for "it won't be long when it's gone as the other building will always be long". Maybe I'm missing some underlying nuance completely and i'll just stop typing now. But before that I'll mention that I'm interested to find out if commenters find this oversharpened. I'm sure you're really glad I mentioned that. Good luck.

i'm curious if this was able to be done standing at 1 end or if you had to walk through the scene shining the light on the wall, as the light seems very concentrated in bands. Perhaps this would have more appeal for me if there wasn't so much light and if you had someone in the pic, seemimgly lost
