I do not think you should take the voting as any interpretation against your climbing out on a climb. It is a most interesting take on the title and if executed a tad differently, certainly would have
scored higher. The competition was TOUGH here and your scores reflect some very nice feelings
on behalf of the voters. You over-reached the bell curve...mmore sexes and sevens than fours and threes. For this you should be patting yourself on the back. DO NOT step away from your humor.
Keep trying square pegs in round holes. You will come up with something great. I think did well.
clever idea, but I think using all of the same type of soup can would have made for a more pleasing image - like the chicken noodle soup, and then coverting the image to a soft sepia, to evoke the 1930's.. boy, I'm just taking over your picture, huh? Anyway, that's what I'm thinking.
