Greetings from the Critique Club

First off, it made me laugh out loud - really! So I went to go look at your portfolio - you have some excellent serious photography there, which to me makes this shot all the more delightful. It's fun, it's silly, and it most definitely meets the challenge. And you did a great job with the lighting, too. Your commenters seemed to thoroughly enjoy it. I can't explain the scores below 4 at all.

Keep up the great work, and even more importantly have a little fun like this shot now and again!

ha ha ha. Might've been funny to have the bill out, but then it wouldn't be an invasion now would it? This is a hoot.
