I like the backlighting to highlight the banding. Looks like a face in profile, too.

That is way cool! ... and a little creepy, too, since it's kind of alienish in shape. :lol:

Bonus Example: Don't forget to keep things clean...
especially since your working with small stuff. and if your like me, you use the sun, and so, thats the light you get at the time you can get it.
so its a lot of fun to work and work, and not "chimp" your shots, and get it all done... relax, have a steak, a mikes lemonade... go to edit in post production and voila!
