This was going to be my entry for the Indoor Macro Shot II challenge, but I wasn't totally satisfied with it so I went with something else and got 6th place.
These little figures are really too small for good photography work, but that's the problem here, as the Japanese model scale is much smaller than the European and American.

Some of that closer bokeh looks 3D. Very cool.

I find this outtake really fun and the bokeh quite remarkable.

Awesome! They are tiny. You probably wouldn't have done as well with this as the other one though, so you made the right choice.

Fun! I love little men shots and I've never seen a Japanese keyboard!

Those little fellows really are small! I think they could be great for photography, but you may need to pick up a good macro lens or try inverting a prime 50mm to do them justice.

I think shots with these little people are so creative. I really need to get me some time. Sweet.

I'm sure you made the right choice for the entry (when considering score), but there is something about this that I find much more appealing. You have some delightful bokeh in this image too.

Well it looks like the good beginning for a book :)

They are tiny, aren't they? I like that bokeh in the background.
