Lobster gags me and as the daughter of a farmer, boy do I understand what you are saying with this image. Great political statement. I think I would have framed it a bit more creatively, but it does get my attention.
even though the title is part of the submission, it should be in a role that supports the image. here, the title is the only thing tying the image to the challenge. as far as the image goes, the composition is interesting, but the lighting and focus are off. the knife is a distraction, and the angle and cropping could be played with to produce a more dynamic result. also, it might have helped to have wiped the plate clean before shooting. does any of this matter? it all depends on what you are trying to accomplish. if you want to raise your scoring, you really have to pay attention to all of the details (and i know, i'm still struggling here!). good luck here, and better luck next time!
The photo is very distratcing. The Letters under the plate aren't really helping and the lobster seems out of focus, But the ideia is really nice. good creativatiy.
That is interesting. I like that you have a butter knife and that you have a newspaper as the background. I'm not sure I understand your point though. Is it that government control drains one of his substance or soul? I will not downrate you for not understanding. I think it is a clever setup. (6)
