Heh, I'd probably end up scratching on that = P Nice concept, but I think the picture is a little dark, nice shot

Underexposed, soft focus, and sharpening artifacts.

Very creative shot, but your image suffers a bit of quality. The colors seem dark and dull, and it looks like you fixed a focus problem with sharpening tools.

Nice use of color for negative space. The only change I might suggest would be to crop it so that you couldn't see the edge of the pool table at the top. karmat

The color in this image is a little flat. I can't really find something here that jumps out and grabs me...

It will better with the 8 ball. Nice shot.

I could probably miss that shot.

Very cool idea and use of negative space. The long shadow is a little distracting to me, however.

compositionally and conceptually, this shot rocks the house! however it's a little let down by focus and noise issues. i'm assuming this was a hand-held in low light. mag99

can't miss but you can follow it in if you use the wrong kind of english. I think the picture could use the addition of a cue stick to add more interest.

If this were just a bit more in focus, and a bit brighter.... Because the NS is used well here to tell the story... Good effort.

good use of negative space. I wish the cue ball was a bit more white compared to the pool table green felt....otherwise good idea. cmcvety.

This isn't bad at all, but I'm wondering if there's another angle that might add more interest. Maybe you coulda taken the pic more from the right and used the right side of the pool table to frame that side as you did on top. I'm left feeling that there is a little too much green table and not enough of anything else to anchor the pic. The lighting has sort of dulled the colors tho I'm not sure what to do about it.
Maybe you could have taken the shot looking down a stick at the balls and used DOF to make it more interesting. You would still have a field of green in the pic but might have more interest. ~indigo997

Good idea, but needed better light. Colors are a bit too flat. IMHO.... Good luck. Score 6 Justine
