Originally posted by pineapple: The idea is good, IMO. I wonder what might make for more drama? Raking light coming in from an out of frame window? A spilled glass? Some deep shadow on the arm hinting at the body out of frame? Just thinking what I might do to enhance the visual theatre.

I agree -- more/better props might have helped. Most of the light is actually coming from a window way off to the left -- see the lighting on the glass and the shadow below the arm; I probably should have made it darker overall, though, but the typical state of people's monitors made me err on the side of visibility.

It didn't want to spill any liquid -- those are some old cards which used to belong to my grandfather and I didn't want to take a chance with them.

I only found out just last night that I only have three of the five cards exactly right -- the Eight of Diamonds should be the spade, and the Queen should instead be the Deuce of Spades ... :-(
