Nice choice of background to match the color of the dummy - or was the flash filtered to be orange?

I notice some low-iso noise, but that could be my monitor :)

The shadows need much more contrast - something hard to do, as a brighter light source for one shadow would probably make the other shadows lighter.

However, a directional spotlight with some tinkering should help...

Great concept, maybe better execution? :)

Haha, good subject. Particularly like the nature of the gift, should appeal to all us camera folk.
