Choose Carefully

I find the texture/pattern of the background a little distracting. I'm also not sure how this fits into "even."

Pythagorian Theorem

Given that the challenge was "blurry mess," with descriptors of "chaotic," "disorganized," and yet "engaging" and "interesting," I'm puzzled at what this image is trying to accomplish. The background at the right of the image is more "cluttered" than chaotic, while the subject is just blurry enough to be annoying and not blurry enough to truly meet the challenge.

I don't think this image would be particularly strong or compelling if everything were in sharp focus; the limited amount of blurring fails to improve matters any.

How could this be made better? I'm not sure this image can be modified to fit this challenge in particular, but it wouldn't hurt to simplify the composition to just the model and the blackboard. A tighter crop could help, as would adjusting the lighting to be a little softer and more appealing. If your model were to be working with a set of French curves (used in technical drawing), you might have some possibilities for the model to echo shape and line of what was on the blackboard.

I think the picture would be stronger with the TV mast cropped out leaving only the chimneys.

The focus looks a little off. I do like the idea/composition, however.

I think you needed to "persuade" the cat to move slightly to the left ... ;-)

Nice, clean, simple image. I might trim a little from the bottom, though.

The focus/sharpness seems a little soft, particularly on the top white pencil.

I quite like the concept behind this image.
