 I thought I would throw a movie reference in there, since that is where I got the idea from. :)

I didn't have a lot of time to search, so I thought I would do one of my own...the only one that I disagreed with the original DQ on. ;)

You have wanted a chance to redo that original for a while. I like the Se7en reference, and it was a good choice to use the well lit wooden floor rather than the field as in the movie. Also, I love the casual humor given the size of the box. Another great shot and finish Samantha.

Congratulations on your ribbon Samantha. I believe it really should have reached at least "SEVEN"... maybe some voters forgot that "Envy" is a deadly sin! ;-)

Great job anyway. I particularly like the lighting on this one.

Voted earlier coming back to comment.

This brings new and creepy meaning to 'thinking inside the box'. Editing, lighting and composition are all in the top notch category. A bit different than the original but still many elements that are similar in the redux that point back to the origin point.
