Very good photography as one would expect from ypu - but zero creativity. Nevertheless, congrats on the top 10 finish.

Nice work Andi :-) congrats.

Given what you've been through lately at work, I guess you didn't have to look too hard for inspiration ;-)

Zero for originality but lots of points for a great reproduction.

Coming back to comment - you did a very good job of duplicating an idea that I saw on another website. So much so, that I had to look and see what was different between the two. I'm assuming you know which one I am referring to and that is where you got your inspiration? I like the idea, but I like the lighting on the other one better - it was a little darker and moodier and gave me the feeling of being phased out and all used up. Yours is very bright and cheery looking and not giving off the same feeling. 7.

Nice photography, but it's a direct copy from Despair.com. I am afraid I have to reserve the high votes for original ideas, or at least a new spin on an old idea.

very clever. so simple and yet so clever.

Terrific idea... Only point I would make is there
should be no "Point".
Better if the lead is really dull or broken off altogether.

I like the moodier lighting of the original poster, but this is a good presentation, very nice DOF

Been there. Done that. Unambiguous presentation. Good luck.

Nicely beaten up pencil. Reflection of the metal on the table bugs me a bit.

Awesome!!!!!!! *10*

While this is a nice photo and funny message it is a total ripoff of a famous calender on Despair.inc.

I am sure I've already seen this on the web somewhere.
