It looks soooo delicious!
Buying crablegs at the grocery store isn't that easy here... at least it is quite expensive.
I've never tried crablegs before but I'd love to - and drink a glass of white wine, which also looks equally inviting in your picture

Somehow it reminds me a little bit of Rene Magritte's picture of the man with the apple
But I like the contrast to the young lady next to him, which makes it more humorous

I remembered that I recognized him as the guitar player when I was voting but that didn't bother me at all. It is perfectly valid to use a good picture that was created for a certain challenge in a Free Study. I can't understand why anybody should give a 2, 3 or 4... oh well - we'll never know...
I rated this picture a 7 but I would have given an 8, if the shadows under his feet weren't somewhat harsh.

And I have to tell you a funny story as an aside:
When I was voting on the miniworld (your son playing guitar) our daughter was looking over my shoulder. When she saw you son she said: Well, if this handsome guy asked me for a date I certainly wouldn't decline!!!

Female with masculine undertones but female nonetheless, I like the honest feeling this picture gives us.
