 I feel the school system these days are very unsafe. You always see guns in schools on the news. When I was growing up you never had to worry about anything like this. On the left side of my photo represents back in my school days. And the right side represents my interpretation of the modern school system.

I think I had that anatomy book! LOL. Good picture, makes a point. Is that supposed to be graffiti over the gun? Good use of light also.

Wow, this is a really good one. Yes, sad, but true. The only thing I can find in the picture worth mentioning is iI can't make out what the white blur is over the handgun. Very good image and strong statement. Great job.

The only thing I don't like is the white lines in the right. I can't tell if that was intentional or not.

Is it supposed to be smoke around the gun? It's a bit distracting.

The blurring image on top of the gun is very distracting but you are advocating such a great message.

Good concept, the books could be closer together. I'm asuming the swirly stuff is supposed to be smoke from the smoking gun? Hard to simulate, harder to shoot.

Powerful message. Lighting is a bit odd, and the (smoke?) from the gun is a little distracting, but excellent idea.

Smoke attempt is kind of weird. Nice idea and love the mood lighting.
