It's just a picture.. or is it?

"Yep, I'm still single :(" reffers to that a boy/girl is living *all alone*.. but is looking for somebody.. and then he/she can but his/her thoothbrush next to her/him...

Played with RGB levels, took the red channel, made a little smart blur and then unsharp mask.
I had a dark blue background but playing with levels all the sudden there was completely black background and i really liked it.

If only finding a companion was as easy as getting a second toothbrush :)

I like the symbolism here. The black background makes a striking image. Good composition and focus.

Top marks for conveying powerful emotion in a highly unusual way. Nice tones.. this is one of my favs.

Great image! I like all the negative space, as well as the b&w use. Very symbolic and fits the challenge well. Great lighting, focus looks good. Nicely done. 8

You know it's not that bad. I have nothing to complain about yet anyway. Nice image.

He he, looks like two of you had the same idea in this challenge. I think it's a good idea, original, and I am surprised two of you had the same thought :-)

This makes the point elegantly. Are you the same photo who has entered toothbrushes in at least two recent challenges? If so you should win an award for your ability to meet any challenge with a toothbrush! Attractive, appropriate, wel done
