Due to his diminishing street cred, the mouse known as PS2 contemplates going wireless.

Looks like a serious operation! It does seem a tad dark, but sounds like you've figured out why! :)

A few of you have mentioned how dark this shot appears and after looking at it at work today I have to agree. It looks much lighter on my home PC monitor. I will have to look into adjusting it. I have heard this before about other shots I have taken. Seems like a trend I must fix. Thanks to everyone for your comments.

lol it's like mouse suicide. I think I'd like to see a little more lighting in this to make some details stand out - in particular the handles of the scissors.

I love the concept, but am not a fan of how dark it is. Just a little more light would have brought out the scissor blades and really shown off what he is trying to do. Luckily he is not living at my house, he would have never survived.

Ruh Roh! what next mouse jumping off a bridge? Clever and well executed.

'Cool', or should I say 'warm', as it has a warm feeling with the darkness and the various tones.

My favorite mouse, much nicer that the new wirelss ones. Sorry to see him feeling so down. Composition is spot on. It is actually a very emotional and evocative photo considering that it portrays a tongue-in-cheek joke. I prefer a wider DOF when there is only a single subject, but I seem to be in the minority at DPC.

its perplexing. almost like the cord and scissors are floating, but the mouse somehow seems planted. nice shot.

Nice lighting on the mouse gives it a dramatic feel. Poor little guy, must be tough feeling behind the times!
