This was taken as my second idea for this challenge. I originally was going to do something from the story "The Gift of the Magi", but i couldn't get the correct 'ingrediants' for a good shot.
Comments are alwasy welcome:)

My biggest problem is that red & green are opposites. Because of that the poison is really difficult to see. I read the other comments...I don't have a problem with the numbers showing on the beaker, just the inability to focus on the poison.
Perhaps a different table covering (or even a lighter shade of red)...but I think that solution would take away from the story.
I would go with a black or a yellow poison color.
And perhaps just a hint of a cross (again, maybe simplicity is better), but they do die trajically.
Interesting concept. The lighting and composition need some changes though to make a great photograph as well as a great concept. Perhaps a more interesting angle and a softer lighting would have helped a bit
I lik the image, and the concept. I think the DOF would have been better very shallow so that you could have blurred the red backdrop a bit. That might have given the image that little extra something that it is missing.
