ROFLMAO!

Yeah, yeah, the lighting and color are a little off, blah blah.

I'm just happy you posted it. :)

I think the dark shadow on the face and throat are disturbing. On my monitor they are so dark that it looks like the body is deformed, and it gives the mouth an unpleasant expression. Also I think the crop on the top is a little tight -- too close to the batteries. These are all technical issues. The idea is fun and OOB, which is what we like on Team Suck. Good try.

I got a chuckle out of this, and like the angles of hard light. I agree with blue moon that the color temp's too warm, though. Would be interesting to see corrected, even as far as tungsten (though that might be too cool).

Photographically speaking, I don't think this is a particularly bad. The lighting on the 'chest' and batteries is very good, however the left shoulder and the face is blacked out from the shadow, which people might have dinged you on. The color temp is a little too warm, but I appreciate the lack of noise and the idea, even though it might be controversial to some.

If those are actually AA breasts then they seem to be very awkwardly pushed up.

Yep. This image is about AA batteries alright. ??? Bet you'll end up with a fair number of views. :D Good luck.

Hey, I guess if the batteries are a boring subject, make the rest of the shot catch a couple of eyes. Nice strategy!

Excellent approach. I enjoy the 'electric' approach, (and humour)! Well done.

The lighting is a little too dramatic for the "humorous" way you want to get the point across.

some one finally went with the cup idea good for you

I do, but I don't like the lack of a certain clarity I'd like to have seen in this shot. It's a nice idea, and a great TITle (ha ha), but I feel that the execution is somehow under-developed. Good, but not great.
