It's not moldy, just disgusting.
Pizza around here is about as bad as this shot.

The interesting thing about this shot was that I didn't check that it was taken between the dates but it still accepted it. Odd.
What's the point of that little box?

Originally posted by LoudDog: If you had the zoom to get this same shot just around the hands, stick and puck you'd have a top 20 image. This is a little to far back for a sports action shot.

I tried a crop around the hands and stick, but as you pointed out it's a bit far out from this shot (also othe angle isn't conducive to it as the white player has his arm tucked in too much already). I appreciate the feedback, thanks.

FWIW there are at least three glove-less hands visible, but as I stated in the comments section, I didn't expect people to think it fit the challenge even though I felt it did.

I was going to do skates as well, but wouldn't have pulled it off anywhere near as well. Excellent lighting.

I'm assuming those are slippers with monkey heads. Interesting idea, definitely different than the rest of the more traditional entries.

The overly bright background hurts the shot, which admittedly is difficult to get because of it. Being able to mix multiple exposures would have helped the shot, unfortunately it's not permitted under the rules.

Too much noise in the image. Bad lighting in general. Over saturated.

The original image I submitted was overly bright and washed-out, unfortunately I seemed to have over-corrected the gamma, even more-so than I thought judging from a couple of the comments, when I resubmitted.

[re kiwipix]: I liked how the glass was split by the shadow, although I would have liked a little more to the left as well, if I had it to do over again. The shadow falling on the bottle I agree isn't nice, and I tried to minimize its distraction (unfortunately, the table used isn't much bigger than what's pictured, and there is a hole in the the table which you can see through the bottle's bottom, which limitted positioning). I was also trying to keep the glass and bottle aligned so that their shadows merged on the table.

A lot of musical instruments in this challenge.
Good choice of music for the picture :)

Neat. A bit noisy, but considering the requirements for the image, acceptable. It's like a constellation sitting on your sofa.
