Maybe a little brigher, but overall I LOVE this idea and shot. Good focus, alright title, good photo elements.

Love the horrible skin tones of the victim. I wonder if there should be fewer M&M's around since it is an overdose.

The Times Crossword... In INK!?!?!

Comment by DrAchoo:
Technicals: lighting is flat. The composition is nice and the focus is on.

The feel: A clever approach to the challenge. However, your background kills you. Why couldn't you be doing the Times crossword with a pen in the park? The BG screams "this shot was set up in 15 seconds" and voters don't like that. Aesthetically the BG also has shapes and objects that take our eye away from the subject, but don't reward. Were you in the park with some nicely OOF flowers or trees or something our eye would go to them, note they are nice and pretty, and then come back to the subject. Here we go to the upper right and think, "what the hell is that on the wall?"

The game: Keep up that creativity. I like it. It isn't always rewarded on DPC, but don't let that get you down.

I knew that I shouldn't leave these out in the sun but I never realized that m&ms impaired my driving. Maybe it means I am not suppose to eat them while driving in case I spill them on the floor?

Good solid composition - the focus on the bottle and top half of image is really good - I am just not sure about the background- it seems a bit grainy and takes away from the pharmaceutical feel of the image in some strange way
