This could be a very interesting idea but you should have to put on it liqueur spilled on the table and also few drops of blood to give more realism to the scene...it remains one of the best of this challenge

Tells a story well. I think a darker exposure would have worked to create a more moody image.

I with the gun were positioned in the hand as if he'd died holding it.

As it's positioned it's the only thing that makes me not love this image for the challenge topic. still... a 7 from me.


Would have been a 9 if the gun and hand (especially the thumb) looked more "just killed myself"ish.

lacks power, who in the grips of a suicidal moment holds the gun in the palm softly, white knuckles locked rd the grip would have sold it more to me or a silhouette of it on the temple and moodily lit bottle would have rocked it
