Good composition, great focus and nice colors. I almost didn't notice that bit of reflection on the character's sword.

Legos. Definately a childhood memory. Looks like Mr. Orange suit blasted off Mr. blue legs head with that light sabre. Great depiction of a battle. Nice chaos.The lighting is a bit dark for my taste, but for this photo is sets the mood nicely. Angle and placement are nice. Good luck in the challenge.

Nice representation of childhood. Objects in foregound lit OK but further back feels too dark. Composition a bit jumbled. Also a bit of a gap in the foreground at left, looks empty sort of...

I love the subject! I also played with legos all the time.

Sorry cq107. I really wanted to empathize with you. You sounded so disappointed with your average. So, you tried something new, and people didn't respond well -- isn't that part of the learning process? Not trying to preach. I know how it is to be disappointed with your placement. But you said in the chatroom that you're discouraged from doing anything creative or different in the future - I hope it's not true.

BLURY, blah who cares, this is diffrent and creative, I felt that NO one would attempt such a shot , and sure enough I was right. Its a shame that only 32 or so peple understood what they were looking at. The white thing in the middle is the tip of the eraser. As for the motion blur, I challenge anybody to recreate this shot and acheive such an image :) I messed up the URL for the original at the top, here it is (big diffrence): //umsis.miami.edu/~jjuroch/photos/dpchallenge/submissions/images/pencilORIG.jpg
