Wow...they left the lights on for ya! Lovely shot. I'm not sure if I like the star effect on the front light or if I find it distracting. Still, I think this is well done.

How in the world did you get them to turn on all their lights? Stunning home and image.

I just came back and wanted to say how I loved this image, I was really stunned to read some of the negative comments...aside from overly puritain and constipated ones...what blows my mind is that some people, who do not grasp the technique, assumed it was a composite. pretty sad.

Don't pay attention to all those that complain, they are just jealous, 'cause they have no idea that the coolest things can be done without photoshop.

I've been very suprised by the dramatic contrast in reactions to this shot. These girls did a fantastic job of creating powerful and sensual imagery without being distasteful in the least. The image was validated so I really don't understand the continual accusations that it was a composite, especially considering the image placing 8th in the "Defining Feature" challenge being shot using the exact same technique.

A sincere thank you to everyone who took the time to vote, and especially comment.

Nice, nice, nice! Can't wait to see how this was done. The biggest lady looks like she's gotten a flash right between the eyes, which is not very cool. Also i don't think the square composition here adds to the shot. The predators are supposed to be dynamic, so i would make it horizontal. 8 because of these two things.
