About the title:
Sorry for those who did not like the title... but it is just that, a title. This is a photo challenge. I titled it as so because I know sometimes voters scroll quickly through images and because Light on White was also going on at about the same time I thought they may have assumed this was just thrown in here from that challenge when this was in fact shot specifically for this challenge as at the time I could not enter Light on White. :)
Lighting:
430 EXII with PW Flex TT5 and Vivitar 285HV connected by sync cord to camera.
It was between this and another possible entry... hope I made the right choice! :)
Here was my other possible entry:

I don't pay attention to titles unless they're really good ones that make me look twice at the photo so yours didn't detract for me although I don't think it was necessary.
I do enjoy the photo.
Oddly enough, (and I'm being honest here) I liked the image and thought you handled the reflections, etc. well.
But the implied 'threat' in the title reduced my vote. Yeah, sorry, but it did.
In my opinion, the photo is technically very well executed. The symmetry in the arrangement is a bit dull though. Overall, the stock photography appearance brings nothing interesting or exciting. The glimpse of the fridge shelf in the background wasn't very prominent, and without the context of the challenge it looks like a distraction. I assume your intention of DNMC warning in the title was to advocate the setup, in order to remove any possible dilemma the voter might have, and to ensure your photo gets the desired credit and the score.
I find the obvious explanations of photographer's intentions in the title a bit banal and bad tasted. You might have found my previous comment a bit rude, but my intention wasn't to insult your or put your photograph down, just to get my point across directly and with a bit of cynicism, without any beating around the bush.
