Terrific, terrific shot, Spiffmeister. It's like you've crossed "The Goonies" with "Close Encounters" or "E.T." visually. Fantastic.

THis is terrific, Richard. You always manage the blue of these birds so well, and the sense of frozen motion here is just spot-on. Even the distracting element is working for you here, is what the challenge asked for. Well done!

This is really quite surreal... I can't even be sure those are real fish. I assume you shot in an aquarium, or some other tank, if they are? Or has someone hung dozens and dozens of plastic fish up? I *think* I can see a few plastic "hangers" in there, as if you cloned 'em all out but missed a few? Whatever.. I like it. You'll get hammered 'cuz it isn't people but I have an 8 for you :-) Feel free to let me know if my guess was right; I'm done voting...

Dogs of War

Cry "'Havoc!' and let slip the dogs of war.", my good man :-) Of course, the "dogs of war" were actually the cogs that held the tension on the gears of the siege machines; you slip[the dogs and the trebuchet unwinds and flings death at the fortifications. An image I'm sure you'd love :-)
