I originally shot this with my Casio Exfilm and one light, but a friend (Spaceman Spiff) liked it so much he let me re-shoot this using his 20D, and some additional lighting. It's a better photo for it.
Edits: Sharpen, lighten, slight crop.
The backdrop and inspiration for the photo is a "Crate" I made out of basswood for a college conceptual art class last semester. I tweaked it a bit for the photo, then added the mannequin, what is obviously a shadow puppet, and a flashlight inside the box for a glow. I lit the right highlights with a lamp and used a second flashlight for the shadows.

While I'm not one of Woodie's biggest fans, this is well thought out and technically very well done. I will break with tradition and give this a 9. I have to say that I find the though of Woody being torn to splinters by an ancient raptor very agreeable.
