I've always wanted to try one of these too -- but I doubt if I could have pulled it off this well! This looks great! You did an awesome job! I'm surprised it doesn't have a higher score.
Oooh, pretty spots! A few distracting bits and the blue/purple light is very bright, but this doesn't look like an easy capture, especially for a basic editing challenge.
