I REALLY hope people don't see this as a shoehorn. I thought about taking out the tables in the background but I knew this challenge was going on so I thought I would keep it to use it. But now that the photo is on the computer they aren't as distracting as I thought.

Well I'm guessing this will win, bc it's excellently PP. Love the sky, the dude on the left should change out of his Pj's first, unless that's the fashion....lol

It would have been infinitely better to have allowed the voter to discover the distraction, rather than use the title to explicitly explain what the distraction is. 7

I don't find them distracting at all. They almost add a sense to balance to the area of negative space. That's just my take on it. :)6

Even with the hint from the title I don't think the tables distract much. Nice sky.
(on a personal note: the guy in the middle doesn't happen to be an estate agent from NY, does he?)
