I like the idea, but the shot could be better. If you could get some movement to show in the hammer it would be better, The lighting is a little too hard.

this is a nice concept, it seems like there is not enough space near bottom and too much space at top, but I enjoy your setup...nothing in background to distract

I understand the intent but the actual process of breaking the clock - wouldn't that be noisy?

I think a more natural setting would have had more impact - a night stand with the approriate stuff in the background. As it is, it lands a bit to far into the staged look to have the humorous impact it could have. Other than that, well composed, lighting's a little stark, but ok. 6
