This was a last minute submission - the CD's chosen are all 80's as well. The CD was invented slightly prior to 1980 but not on the market and available until 1982.

Not very creative... but all I could think of for an 80's submission. I used a black kitchen apron as background an a flash bouncing of a white reflector (white paper) on the wall behind.

Put them on vinyl and you would have the eigties nailed. However with only 28% of households in the US having a cd of any kind in them in 1990, I don't call that a huge breakthrough...

Except for the soundtrack, it looks like you took this from my collection. Your photo is well composed and lit. Nice job.

I like the composition of this. I would have shot at more angle (more perspective) just to add some artistic drama to it.
