This was taken from natural light (via my window), there was really no set up. I just picked up the tag from a recently purchased (and very cute!) top. The idea just hit me while shopping, I mean the stupidist thing a gal can do is go somewhere in a top 3 sized to small!

Greetings from the Critique Club

First, this was a hard challenge, in my opinion. I do like the idea - without reading the title but knowing the challenge, I'd have said that the "stupid" part might be paying $48 for whatever it was. But with the title, and your explanation, AND being a fellow female, I do get it. Unfortunately, it might not be so clear to the other half of the population (the male half), and they don't get to read the comments until the challenge is over.

As for the picture itself, you achieved excellent clarity on the tag itself, and I like the use of B&W - it's effective here. Good use of natural light as well. The finger on the left of the photo and the thumb look a bit out of place, though. Perhaps having a bit more of the hand in the shot, or less shallow depth of field to keep the finger and thumb a bit more in focus might alleviate the "out of placeness".

By the way, the close up of the shoe you entered in "Superstitions" is very well done - but I see that a lot of people "didn't get it" during the challenge. You will find that the better your shots "meet the challenge" the better they'll score. You have a very interesting perspective on things - keep shooting!

I really dig this. It is amazingly sharp. I'm also surprized that you were able to secure that location for the shot. I've been trying to get back down to that place for a while and haven't made it yet.

I don't understand this one at all? What'll fit and why is it stupid?

Back to comment. Without seeing the person that wants to purchase the item, it is hard to tell if it will fit or not. Still, I gave you a 6 because it meets the challenge, is photographically well done, and the B&W conversion is excellent.

Raising prices, the worst crime of all.
