Incredible background of lights, sparks, deluge of stars. Mysterious stuff on the left, mysterious person on the right. Could that be Mrs. Claus cutting through Santa's workshop, the elves welding bikes and whatnot? Given the title, the scene is both grim and strangely joyous, a celebration of super-heated materialism and the incurrence of implacable debt. Exciting, ironic, beautiful and thought-provoking.

Overwhelming and why I skip Black Friday. I feel a little trepidation about entering this place.

Terrific impact. I would lose the crate on the left . . . the gray does nothing for me here :) But the rest, the rest is impossible to resist.

totally mesmerized by the pulsing texture, the near and far of it: should I stay or go now?

Like a thousand sharp, shiny knives raining terror down from the sky. ...what? Well that's my take on it and I'm sticking to it. :P

gorgeous! the figure definitely adds that extra edge, and the tilt is disorienting, another good choice - at once delightful and sinister

Oh wow, very impressive. The lights are fantastic due to the slight movement and the sheer number of them. But the figure makes the whole image.
