 I figure some other people might have similar ideas, but it was too fun to pass up the inspiration!

I used one soft box directly in front of me; the power was set pretty low. Then I used an umbrella strobe in the refrigerator (without the umbrella, obviously). Lighting isn't my strong point, so it was nice to experiment. I was just excited that the lighting worked out the way I hoped it would!

The one thing that annoys me about this photo is that my hand is chopped off. >:( I had several versions where my hand wasn't, but they lacked the depth of field that I wanted. I had to make a sacrifice either way.

Great shot, more deserving than the score that was given. Kudos for the effort and creativity.

I really like you concept and lighting. The wall on the left is a bit distracting to me, and it looks more like Attack on the Leftovers since the Leftovers look defenseless...

I really like this shot, but I wish the leftovers were in focus. It seems like that should be the focal point of the shot. 6 as it is now, probably up to 8 with a deeper depth of field.

time for a better color tile or linoleum on the floor; but I have that green tupperware container, and the apron is a nice touch.

Very nice, like a szene from a nightly scary movie!
