 I used a slice of bologna as my inanimate object, and endowed it with the abstract human quality of sadness.

Great lighting and composition!
Consider asking Oscar if he's interested in purchasing it.

I agree Brad and with all of you who found the lighting a bit off on this entry. I have to admit, I was still waiting for a copy of Photoshop and now am adequately equipped to adjust for poor lighting.

I think the color cast played a huge effect on the challenge results, as this was
a very creative and well composed shot (considering it IS bologna)

I did a quick edit to show the difference:

I am suprised this didn't do better...I love the facial expression...I am guessing people didn't like the lighting?

As a vegetarian this really made me giggle (and a bit sad too)! Lovely composition.

Good idea, well executed. I like this one! Lighting is a bit strange, but I think it works.

I like your angle and crop. The "tear" of mustard adds a lot to your photo.I just wish your lighting was a little better. Good luck!

This totally cracks me up. I love the "expression" on its face. The teardrop MAKES the shot! Congrats.

While an interesting take on the challenge, I think the lighting hurts this image. The composition is great, the DOF works.

LOL I like the "off" angle and the mustard tear. The lighting is a smidge off. Great imaginative idea.
