This was the first time I have ever "set-up" a shot. Kinda cool. Keep my fingers crossed and see if I do better than the last challenge. And yes...........no foods were mistreated during the shooting of this scene. B-)

i really like this shot ... i do almost wish the head of the club wasnt there as much ... but i love the concept ... the color saturation is just about on - great job
I didn't vote (or review) the entries in this challenge but just noticed this one when flitting through the results. I really like the composition and DOF. The framing from the club is great. Very quirky. Lots of fun!
One of the most creative in the bunch. I really wish you had placed the club behind the gourds(?) so I could see it better. The poor focus on the club is distracting because it's such a major element.
The idea is a real winner. Colors are perfect - composition on the diagonal is super. You biggest problem is that the golf club takes up so much of the foreground and it's not even close to in focus. Many night not even grasp your point. Perhaps a more recognizabele iron would have worked better. But for sure, you needed to stop way down to hold more DoF.
I get the gag, but only because I recognized the golf tee. The golf club is far too out of focus. If you use the zoom at maximum and place the camera further back, you will get a greater depth of focus.
Great idea. Original. Would have been even better without the blue barrier in the foreground. I think we get the fun idea that the golf tees mean golf course without the club(?) in front. Still, lots of ingenuity here...
