Boredom of writing a paper
by bfishin89

Comment:
too small and badly lit. Has a certain "web-cam" feel to it. But I don't think that adds to the theme here. Maybe some more lights from other directions, or more daylight? Or even something like a candle to add mood and an interesting light effect.

I really get a sense of boredom from your image. I think that it may be my favourite of the bunch.

One million boring words better than one image ???

Pandering to stereotypes of boring books, but I like the idea! Also very well executed - how do you keep your glasses so clean? Background might be considered a bit distracting, but I like it - not a "stock" style with zero background, but adds colour without being too much I think. Only criticism is that you appear to have a dead pixel in centre of white area on book.

37 Down - should be "Stack". 38 Down is "Horne". Not sure about 39 Down.

A cryptic crossword would be more interesting.

Nice photo, though! A tighter crop might have been interesting - the picture is very focussed on the central elements, though I think that it is well bordered by good use of DoF.

dog has some strange growth coming out of his mouth (see vet urgently) - very distracting! Understand that this may be a cookie - and that the cookie might be her best friend. And the image does not clearly say who she is friends with. But a nice looking dog (my dog likes dog biscuits too).

colours look really off (on my monitor) - that coke should be red, not orange, I think. And red/green is not a pretty combo. And the composition is a little flat - you have filled the frame, but there is no great variety in shape/height etc to make it interesting. And it seems a little overexposed, as you have lost all of the detail in the necks of the bottles.

far too small!! plus the guys on the edge of the frame look a bit too close to the edges (ie partly cropped) and a few pixels more would have helped the composition.

Soft focus a real turn off for me - and a bit cloying. T-shirt logo is distracting.

Too cloying for my taste, and made much worse by the use of the soft border. Dog looks a bit startled.
