I did not even recognize you! Extra merits for preparation for this shot. I can tell you put thought and effort into it, even creating a costume. I love the light emanating from the treasure chest and illuminating your face. The black background makes everything else pop. Excellent job and my personal favorite for the mission so far. Well done!

Mission accomplished.

oh nice interpretation -- this pirate thing is all so new to me... The kids are pirate crazy! They'd love this shot -- perfectly lit with the dark ominous background...

@surfzone You're correct, the forbidden treasure was an SB-600 because it's forbidden to ever be mounted on the camera itself!

Thanks to all for the comments, I always appreciate them.
