Thanks, Brennan, I feel honored!

Thanks for playing!

Not as sharp and the lighting is quite different ( I used a softbox on the left side plus a cardboard reflector on the right) but overall well done. The background is spot on.

His light on the left with a touch of bounce to fill in the right side with the darkest part being closest to the camera made his shot spectacular. Here the even left right light, and the touch too much empty frame along the bottom come up a bit short. Still you got 90% of it, just not the touch of magic.

Nicely done! Took a while to find the original. But, thanks for the clues. :D

I miss the contrast and interesting shadows in the original... but this is cool!

Background perhaps not quite as vibrant, but very close. Nicely done.

Comment by giantmike:
Nice image to reproduce, and an overall nice reproduction. The original had a bit cleaner (sharper and color balance) image.
