Originally posted by DrAchoo: The elements of this picture just don't really go together. On one hand it looks like you took the time to set up a nice still life.

I should not have added the candle, it didn't work. As to the "boozer", I don't think you quite got the message of "Monday Night Football" I was going for, no fault of yours, but he is integral to the "story" of the picture. Not my best effort but I had some fun doing it which was all I was looking for really. Better luck next time I hope. :-)

Greetings from the Critique Club

Nice image and since you said you were being silly I will tell you...You did fantastic at it.

The angle you did this at made it interesting. You definately met the challenge I see the graininess there. Although I'm sure others didn't get it cause I would have agreed with comments below that this should have ribboned if for no other reason than CREATIVITY and ORIGINALITY.

It's very hard to find any flaws in a photo when you like it and that is exactly my problem here trying to critique this...its just one of those images I personally wouldn't have changed a thing. I guess some of the voters wanted a green squeegee instead of blue. Oh my what a lame attempt I have at the silliness...

All I can say is beautiful creative work.

Anna

The glass is particularly well captured and the lighting looks to really set the mood.

Aside from the beet and pretzels, I can identify with the person asleep in the background - lol. Nicely composed. Is that a candle though? What? No peanuts? I like it. :-) 8
