Decided to think outside the box (i.e.- decided to submit a photo sure to score low)

This is my brand new mini, with click wheel protector still on.

Shot in a mini studio set up in my kitchen.

A very original idea for the challenge, and well executed.

Nicely shot, but a real stretch for any relationship to the challenge.

An excellent stock photo image. Very clean and the lighting is outstanding without any overexposed areas. The iPod looks surrealistic.

Some viewers will feel this image does not fit the challenge topic and will vote it lower.

Technically there is little wrong with it. It does seem a little unbalanced with darkening between the left and right side of the image but that may be just individual taste. If the middle left side were darked about 15-20% more than it be balanced better with the right side.

Good picture.

I like the placement of the earphones in front of the IPod. The background is a little dull looking though.

That would be a miracle!
Great lighting.

You have a good taste in music. The capure is very well performed but would better fit in another challenge. Advertising maybe ? But anyway a very good capture...

Your title is the only vague connection to this challenge, and it is not enough to convince me. Nice shot of the ipod, though.

Going through and commenting on all my 5 votes, as I find this type of photo usually receives the least amount.

This comment may not make me popular, but IMO, it's far too reliant on cult-media reference and a shoehorned title. The 5 (instead of a 2 or 3), is there because, technically it's a really nice photo.. but it's still an item I can find in our world.. not one of another world.

Very nice composition. The selective desat works great here.

Not being familiar with iPods or their ads (never seen one actually) I thought this was kind of a cop out shot. I don't see any 'fantasy world' in the pic, only the title.

Relevance to challenge theme? Title did not succeed in rescuing relevance.

imo the photo needs the title to relate to the challenge instead of being able to stand on its own
