Hm. I'm sure there's something you are trying to tell us with this shot that I'm not getting. To me, it's just an OOF keyboard that's rather too dark. Oh, yes, and it happens to have some shadows, too. Sorry.

Brown out problems? Very dark photo with hints of blue/grey color. Vaguely out of focus (were you going for a soft focus shot?) Many digital cameras (mine included) have problems with autofocus in darker conditions (IR focusing). Try aiming at a subject in better light that is about the same distance away, lock the focus (half shutter press) then swing back to your dark subject. It will be in focus. Also try a looonnnggger exposure with a tripod (will capture a brighter photo) Photo 3 Creativity 6 Shadows 6 total 4 (photo quality really hurt your score)

This would be a very cool photo if it were in focus...

I don't mind the darkness (it conveys a point effectively), but I wish it weren't blurred.

Neat, but more like the dark of the keyboard.

This is a bit too dark for my tastes. I get a sense of a keyoard in darkness, by the glow of the monitor perhaps?

I know you might not have any choice but center of action (interest) is too small for overall photograph. Story loses impact as too far away.
