I had a completely different idea for this challenge, but I was having difficulty getting it to work for me and I was running out of time, so this was my quick 'second' idea. I bought the SPAM and the mailbox at the store and set it up in my garage on top of a stand with a black pillow case on top. It was after dark so there was no ambient light and I had my one 'model' light pointed down from the top.
I don't often add borders since I usually have no idea what to do with them, but this time I decided to give it a go. I matched the red to the red of the mailbox flag. I am still not sure if I like the border or not.
Now - I don't know what to do with the SPAM I have. I don't eat meat - let alone SPAM. Maybe the dogs will like a treat!

Nice concept but somehow the lighting seems quite flat. Also, not such a big fan of the red border, although I'm ignoring that as far as the score is concerned.
