Very interesting challenge to enter and just as un-dpc friendly the pic..

I liked the composition and the way everything made an impact.. good or bad it was up to the viewer of course.. I really did expect it to go down like a dying duck..

The nails ahem.. I have very nice nails.. dunno why they look like crap in the pic.. (the lady who commented on how nice they looked in the supermarket jinxed them arghh.. long story..) I only noticed them after I uploaded the pic here...

Oh and wow to the people who noticed what the bottle was for.. I didn't even read the label when I picked it up..

For a first challenge pic this is pretty cool...great job on taking the chance.. On my first time I freaked out and backed out and got dared to put a shoddy substitute instead..
Really like the subject and the mood you've created...

He looks like a teddy with an attitude.. nice capture of smoke.. the backgorund should have been darker.. would have created better contrast and the smoke would have stood out more..
