 Some more silliness, just having fun with the challenges. :-) The reflection of the TV image didn't work as well as I would have liked. The photo has been cropped, levels and colors adjusted, a little burning and sharpening and that's about it.

The elements of this picture just don't really go together. On one hand it looks like you took the time to set up a nice still life. On the other you got the boozer asleep on the couch. Technically a little more light on the pretzels and a little more DOF to get the bauble more in focus (I'm not even sure what it is).


I should not have added the candle, it didn't work. As to the "boozer", I don't think you quite got the message of "Monday Night Football" I was going for, no fault of yours, but he is integral to the "story" of the picture. Not my best effort but I had some fun doing it which was all I was looking for really. Better luck next time I hope. :-)

The glass is particularly well captured and the lighting looks to really set the mood.

Aside from the beet and pretzels, I can identify with the person asleep in the background - lol. Nicely composed. Is that a candle though? What? No peanuts? I like it. :-) 8
