    Thanks everyone, glad you like it... haha, i dont know how GOOD it is, but like i said, it sure is funny.

    As for TomP, it took a tripod, a few speedlights (3) and a selftimer... and me falling on my butt 7 times to get it right. compared to some of the other photos, it was easy! but not nearly as satisfying.

    here are the rest (previously posted but not together) i have a few more up my sleeve too...

    Dude these are really a lot of fun, a lot of creativity going on there. It really puzzles me trying to figure out how you have executed these shots, that is the whole point, a pic that makes you THINK. Keep it up.

    how the heck did you time the shutter to get the lamp falling over? overall great sense of style in all of them. looks a little heavy on the shadow/highlight tool though...
