Mr. Intense 2012! You just need a Championship belt to finish this shot off. Lighting is great.

This reminds me of "Leave it to the Beaver". Looks like dad is shocked by something the Beav did. :)

Well executed. Check out this video when you get a chance. It's worth the time.

The background looks like insulation found in a basement covering the foundation. I have the same issue in my little home studio. I actually used it in this shot . It just needs to be muted because of the glare it throws.

The cue ball looks a bit yellow. From the gel? cool shot. Inspired me to add a pool shot later on in the challenge. Keep em' coming.

SWE3T Shot! Thanks for the inspiration! BTW, I will be making a reflector this weekend based on your design. You should market it.

Strong. I'd almost reduce the opacity on the processing of the blinds and leave you the same. IMHO the lighting is spot on. Just enough of the subject is lit up. Happy the bottle wasn't cropped. If I am being ultra picky, I would have placed the bottle in your left hand and used your leg to prop it. Nice work here.

It's the processing. I am addicted to blur! I just like to have control over it.

It's not your monitor. It's the dumb hat.

A bit too dark for me. What were your camera settings?
