Dancing Gingerbread Man

I liked the simplicity of the stainless steel, and along with the lighting and the white background it almost gives a monochromatic feel, even though it is a color shot. Most of all this simple little shape of steel made me happy. He just looks like he's having fun, without a care in the world, whistling and dancing down the street. I can see a huge smile on his face.

Jack -- What a fun image! This is especially timely for the upcoming holiday season. I can just hear the rhyme in my head... "You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man..." :) -- Jeannie (jburly)

Although Gingerbread Man is flattered that someone would think he'd won any kind of an award before, this is in fact the first time he's allowed anyone to photograph him while dancing, let along enter his likeness in a photo contest.
