Which is kitsch?

Lighting is too strong for my tastes and you can see fingerprints and water droplets (?) on the the metallic decorations. But I guess that's the point?

Lots of compression artifacts, and meets the challenge well. Wish there a bit more light on the bottom of the background.

I like your composition very much but the high amount of noise degrades the quality. Meets the challenge well.

Liberty Is Never Tacky

The dark colors give me an impression of a depressed holiday spirit and if it weren't for your title, I would think that was the tackiness here.

Not sure I like the blue cast, and wish the image was brighter.

Wonderful classic Xmas decoration image, but it doesn't say "tacky" to me. The composition is excellent even with the tight crop. Lighting is a bit too dark and the colors are a bit too saturated for my tastes. Still, going to give a high mark.

This is the best, I love it! Funny as hell, albeit a bit dark. Also, lettuce looks like it's been out a bit too long.

I really love the tones and color in this photo! Great job, in that respect. Just wish you had blurred the background a little more to make it less distracting from the main subject. Also, I wish there was a little more light shined on the wreath.

I like this picture very much. Very funny, good colors and exposure although, not crazy about the background. Why the reflections, is this scene in a glass case of some kind?

Is this a Christmas present?

Although I don't find her to be tacky at all, I like the concept very much. Lighting is a bit too harsh and you've lost some detail in the highlights on her legs. Would also have preferred this in color. Not crazy about the composition either. Her upper torso is so enlarged compared with other elements in the shot and half of her is in focus, half out. Would have preferred her maybe to be curled up under the tree with other presents?
