I wanted to show that brown can be relaxing, what more could you want than a warm cup of coffee by candlelight with different shades of brown and to top it off your brown pipe and favourite book to read.

Composition lacks punch. Would have liked to see the brown tones dominate more.

Need better composition and lighting ... studio photography is hard.

wish you had lit lower to emphasize candle light!

I am not sure why this picture looks strange...

Something feels a bit off... It doesn't seem like the elements are compositionally balanced. The other thing is that the white-background studio feeling conflicts with the warm comfortable-everyday-items feel.

A good effort, but I think it will meet with mixed reviews. =)

I'm sorry, I don't really like this one.It's a bit too easy.

I wish the magazine wasnt so vibrant of a color, it takes the eye off of the main "brown" focus. Thats what makes this challenege so unique, is that you have to make brown (which is a non-discript color) the main attention. Right now, my focus keeps going to the red magazine. Nice effort!

Maybe it's just me, but the image looks too "busy". There are too many subjects such that my eye doesn't know which subject to focus on.
