Congratulations, Christophe. Lovely work that you and your wife produce, you make a great team. Thanks for sharing the link, I can see that the expert one has a bit more vigour and that it is frustrating to have limitations. However your entry had what it took to finish on top.

By far best shot in this challenge. The only one worth a 10 in my opinion.

What a fun idea! :)

Hmmmm, I like the color of the light on the basic editing shot better than the expert one. But I love the smoke from the matches in the expert. The rest, well I feel strongly both ways. :)

I'm so glad you posted both, however. Whenever I'm working in basic editing, I get annoyed and wish it was advanced. However, I never bother going back and reworking it to see what I could have done. So it was great fun to see the difference and what touches you added.

I think you need to clone your wife, however. She has such talent!! I love the props she makes for you!

This is my FAVORITE shot of the bunch!

LOVE the post-apocalyptic look. Yet very real look.

The title along with the man, seemingly looking upward, entices the viewer to have sympathy, yet compassion, for the man. The birds flying in the left of the photo also add the "life" to the photo... yet a darkness as well.

This is perfectly done!

Only 10 I gave. :)
