Don't Think Twiceby

AHA! I'M AN ARTIST!
Actually, I agree. This is a shit picture--taken at the last minute and using an idea that I just couldn't get to work right. I was trying to use the hallway lights just outside my apartment door, which were directly overhead, hence the shoe in shadow. My camera was placed on it's end on the floor and propped up with a few books I had. I desaturated everything except the vase because the picture was so underexposed that the colors looked bad no matter what I did. I left the vase blue so it wouldn't be lost in the background (important because it's the only interesting thing in the picture).
The title comes from the Bob Dylan song "Don't Think Twice (It's Alright)" about a guy walking away from a relationship and I was trying to capture that here. Unfortunately, even before I submitted it I knew this was going straight to the bottom of the rankings (Lots of comments, though, thanks for putting up with this crap!).
Funny that of my six challenge submissions, my first three were the best (average score: 5.682) and my latest three have all been rather bad (average score: 4.29). I guess I haven't been inspired as of late (by the challenges at least, next week I'm picking up some enlargements of my own photos and hanging them on my walls).
Here's hoping for next week. *pours another pint*
By the way, how does one edit their comments next to the photo information after a challenge is over?
