bingo! that is where it was... i particularily like this shot as it reminds me of my old roommate who i don't see alot as he has like $30,000 worth of lego and plays with it around the clock, and the picture looking almost like a clock just sets out my friend in my mind. Love the shot. Great colors, and i am a fan of black and white when it comes to photography, but there are some peices that it just wouldn't do it justice, and this is definatly one of those pieces. Great work.
