Greetings from the Critique Club
Hi Ken, got you again!
Initial thoughts/My opinion
LOL! As tacky as can be! Frontal composition works well here. Great colours, also on the border.
Content/Composition
As others already commented, this is extremely tacky with a good portion of bizarreness. Very well chosen.
I thing you did the composition just right by giving the viewer a full view to the displayed objects, allowing him/her to let the eyes walk around and laugh here and there. There are so many things to look at, focusing on just one item might have not been as good. What I especially like is that the "tree" decoration hangs across the eyes of the "lady".
A strong element in your composition is the border: it looks almost like being the window frame and probably nobody would be surprised if the real window frame would look like that. Therefore it would have been better to crop more at the bottom.
Camera work -technically
Looks fine too me, maybe a tad underexposed (-1/3 EV or so). Focus is just right. Whitebalance too.
Digital Processing - Technical
Sharpening has been well done, it could have been brightened up a little though. As mentioned great job on the border.
Fits the challenge
Yeeeeeeeeees!
Good luck for your further submissions!

| I think maybe you got a bit too close on this one, cutting off part of the word 'Holiday'. Generally I'd complain about the border, but for this challenge it fits well. Very good. |
