 A small lion figurine on my child's Noah's Ark twist-mill was the subject. I used a flashlight behind the figurine and reflected it on the wall.

I don't know how well this will turn out on the challenge, but I thought I would provoke the appearance of LEO through it's shadow in a sort of night-time, reflecitve, starry way.

I could've done some post work with cloning at the lower left leg, but I wanted to keep it clean according to the rules.

I see the lion but the photo just doesn't hold much appeal.
That said it does bring to mind night time dreams and nightmares of shadows and monsters.

A bit to grainy and off focus for my personal interest, but a very good idea. perhaps a stronger light would have made it stronger.
