| i'd have to agree... the lighting is a tad harsh for the suggestion of romance and it would look better if a bit more random in its staging... |

the glare on the wine glasses and shiny shoes from the flash isnt pleasing. maybe you could try using other light source, like a fluorescent? that's my main gripe.

I think the concept is there, but the image seems a bit too contrived, like its carefully arranged to look random, but it just doesn't, it looks carefully arranged.
The black background and foreground don't help because it just makes everything seem like they're just floating in space. |

A little too much to handle. I DO like how the wine glass is under the heel of the one shoe, though I would have preferred more interaction between the pearls and the wine glasses. In the back I felt that the wine glass needed more wine. I can hardly see the glass otherwise.
About the first comment: there's a little too much implied in this photo. I don't mean that in reference to the condom packages, but rather in general, though the packages do feel superfluous to this still life. Perhaps another candle to the right of the other heel and no flash at all would have made this photo more sensual and appealing than the stark, bright light. Rather than romantic it feels intrusive.
So, that's my critique. =) |

| I don't like this picture for many reason: 1. The lighting makes the shoes a funny orange color. 2. Nobody is dancing so it doesn't match your title. 3. Why is there a candle??? 4. CONDOMS? Geez. Can't you just leave sex out of this? 5. Why is the wine glass spilt from nder the shoe? If you spilt the wine first, and then put the shoe down, you could have picked up the wine! This just kind of grosses me out. |

| The composition, just like the metaphors, has been pushed to breaking point I fear. There's too much trying to be said all at once, and the cheekiness and wit would be stronger with at least 2 elements removed from the shot. Less is more. |
