Printout of the Ten Commandments, run through with a knife I got on a trip to Mexico when I was about ten years old.

This most famous piece of propaganda seems to be rather ineffective after 5000 years.

Handheld, incandescent light, curve for contrast and one for color, sharpened twice to accentuate shallowness of DOF try and make it look like fabric.

It was kind of hard to figure out what you were trying to convey here, but that might just be me. I apologize if everyone else got this and I didn't. I know very personally how frustrating that can be! I would like to know what you were portraying though, if you do get a moment. Otherwise I'll wait for details after the contest ends!

Don't know what to make of this one. Religon basher? 1.

Wow, subtle. Maybe I'm reading this wrong or something, but is that a table leg? If it is, then, yeah, subtle commentary on how life is, when you take in the image with the title.

Um... is this a photo of your monitor? What's the dark thing on the right? Could this have been taken from a better perspective to make it more engaging? 4 -danny

A little confuse to me, cause I canĀ“t identify the object over the word "kill". I guess that you are to say something related to "Thou shalt not kill.", but I can found the point itself.
