There is something incredibly eerie about those clay soldiers. Fascinating, and amazing, and everything, yet spooky at the same time. It's a great shot, mrjeffy321.

However, hypatia got my vote for a super-spiffy shot and the subject matter is so integral to the Chinese New Year celebration.
 
What an odd grouping of subjects to choose from!

I really like the choice of subject for hypatia's photo...and even got a little chuckle out of the person to the far left in the photo who you can just see through the smoke who is holding her ears (maybe she should have stood back a bit further? :biggrin:).
 
I had to go with Hypatia. That was a nice shot right there.
 
Just a reminder that you have less than 2 days left to vote in this contest. Is hypatia going to run away with the contest? Or will someone catch her at the last moment?
