 Well I tried three different brands of gum, and not a damn one of them would stick to the sidewalk and stretch up to the shoe. They all just stuck to the shoe. Oh well.

Maybe better to focus on the gum, rather than the logo.

Like the idea; would have been much more fun if the gum were still stuck to the ground and stretched out to the shoe.

If the challenge is "sticky" and you have gum on your shoe, shouldn't we see the "stickiness" of it all?

Very realistic situation. Gum needs better light and focus, since that is the most important aspect of this challenge.

Good perspective. Would even be better if the gum was stretching out toward the ground.

Like to see some stickier gum. Perhaps still some stuck to the sidewalk or something?
