Contest comments:

nofue: I think the "YOUR yard" issue should be taken easy -- a lot of people don't own a yard, let alone a decorated yard. I suggest allowing decoration from yards not owned by the photog (as it would be quite impractical to get proof of the photog's property anyway) (2 years and 213 days ago)
outbackjack: I agree but I don't think public parks should qualify, just a pic of someones home garden ornament (2 years and 213 days ago)
serious: agree with both...there are plenty of home gardens or patio gardens that would qualify (2 years and 212 days ago)

This ugly little fellow hangs on my garage wall overlooking my patio.
I experimented with different lighting in a attempt to exagerate his evilness.
I shot at night using long exposure and a torch for light with redundant red and blue lens filters held infront of the torch to create the coloured light.
