One of the best example of real painting with light in this challenge.

Comes up a little short compared to the image it's based on.

The editing made this image less than it could have been.

Thanks, nice of you to say. Yep, coat hanger, but it was a huge pain. I bent the hangar into a rough position thinking that it would be easy to make adjustments to it as I went. Nope. The octopus had a memory of where it was and kept twirling around the hangar back to that position. Unfortunately, that position was with suckers away from camera. I envisioned something different than I got but with only an hour to shoot, edit, and enter before the deadline I had to go with this.

This is the one I pegged at #1 when I was voting. Even though I normally don't pick the winners, I think the running of the DPL pushed this one down which is a shame because this one is very good on all levels.

Thanks, made the kitchen reek for a few days after the shot. I don't know which is sillier, the photo or my SO and I running around after sticking our octopus stinking hands in each other's faces forcing each other to smell its nasty stank.

While it's beyond me how people can eat these things I do enjoy this photo. I would like it more with the entirety of the roll being in focus and without the large gap between ingredients. The gap has become the only thing I can focus on.

I love the idea but it feels very cramped.
