This isn't as "artsy" as most of my other photos, but I liked how it came out.
For all fifteen of you who haven't played Portal, go play the damn game. It's the best five hours you'll spend in a puzzle in years.
I transferred the Aperture Science logo from a printed image, and carved it with one of those cheesy pumpkin-carving knives that are basically jigsaw blades with handles.
The "Portals" on each side were sawed out with a jigsaw, then I put white paper screens in each hold. From there, those pieces of paper were lit from each side with a pair of flashlights - a Surefire Kroma's blue LEDs for the left, and a Surefire E2E shining through an orange CD case for the right. All interior light was bleed-through from the baffles.
It was raining pretty hard when I took this, so I had to rush things a little with the setup.
Thank you! I'm probably going to another Aperture Science Pumpkin this year - and I'll have some better equipment and ability to take the shot. I'm glad you liked it!

Yeah, Portal is probably one of the highest fun:time ratios I've ever seen in a game. It's a wonderful example of addictive gameplay, show-don't-tell storytelling and, of course, some of the best pitch-black humour to ever hit the medium.

It seems time-consuming to make the set-up, so might as well take many shots while it's there.
Cheers!

You win. At life.
I've been on a crazy portal fix for a few weeks now, and this is awesome.
