I like the lighting - a real (or at least less platic-looking) snake would have really made this a top photo.

the background color is simply perfect. it describes the mood and shows the evilness of the snake! awesome!

Really sharp and nice colors.. but the snake looks too artificial .. would have been a truly amazing shot if it was real - 8 (would have been 10 with a real snake)

The snake is not too real but it's a great photo!

haha, this is very cute, love the colours!

Good color.

Interesting shot. The background color really grabs your attention right away (in a good way). Good use of the toy snake. Nice shot - 7

is the snake real?!

Pretty cool shot. I think the prop snake looks way too much like a prop snake, and a dime store prop at that. Might have used a lense/aperture that would have maintained sharp focus on the rope while easing up a tad on the snake so it doesn't come across looking as fake. Like the background and the lighting overall.

Nice but would have been great with a real snake.

I really hate the black on the background...

That's an ugly plastic snake. Shame you couldn't find a real snake to do this for you. I do really like the color contrast and composition.

This would have had a lot more impact with a real snake.
08/22/2006 09:24:23 PM
the only thing I don,t like about this (except for the fake snake) is the blown highlights & soft focus on the rope itself. Otherwise love the concept, lighting & composition - 7

Hey that's my boys snake...Way to work with what's on hand.

pity the snake wasn't real as this would have won the blue!
