I really like this - muted colors, with the central focus on the orange/blue color -Ed Hahn

Thanks Very much, this is my first ever post to the challenge, the exposure was not 1/5s as I stated earlier it was 5s with a very brief burst of the torch just to expose the middle rows, Flash was far too harsh.

Victor, the Chalks are from a childs toy shop about 2 1/2 inches high and come neatly in a box 10 X 10 chalks all need taking out and putting back in the right order.

Roberta, thanks for the lighting comment, it took around 10-15 shots to get the one that has been uploaded!

Michael,
Great shot with perfect lighting to highlight the repeating patterns created by the chalk. Roberta

Looks like a closeup view of a colorful dragon. How big are those chalks, and where do you get them? -- Victor
