 For some reason I take my glasses off when I do my sudoku... and this came to me.

Jeanne,

This image is very well composed and the only thing I would add to the image is to fill in numbers into the square that is captured inside the lens. This would really strengthen the relationship between the glasses and the puzzle.

On the technical side, all this needs is a little levels adjustment to make the paper whiter. My suggestion is set the Levels Inputs at 0 - 1 - 191 and then do a noise reduction.

Good basic composition - would probably work well for a stock photo except for the date. Those things are addicting.

The puzzle rather than the glasses seems to be the subject.

I love Sudoku. I think the compression on this JPG image might be a little high though. I can see artifacting around the lines in the image - which I believe is due to the compression. I would have liked to have seen the image a little brighter as well.

I like the idea maybe better with more powerful magnification on the glasses but good

I like the photograph, but I am having a personal issue with the lighting. Nothing against your abilities...just personal likes.

I love this game, but the photo is OK. Maybe more contrast or color might have helped - it feels dull to me.
