*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

A competent image that meets the challenge

What a fun challenge this was, free reign for anything you want without having to rack your brains for a title which has generated tremendous response from the viewers, win, win! A fun image that is generally well executed with an appealing simplicity, however that same simplicity is a little marred by the bar at the 10 o'clock position that is catching the light in a distracting sort of way. The other problem for me is the staple, I just don't understand it, I can't see any logical reason for it.

I think a square crop would have suited it better it would have removed the space above that makes no contribution to the image as a whole. Your lighting is illuminating the ball nicely but spilling over to give an unevenly lit background.

Ok, so time for a title?
Let me be your squeeze
Well done for submitting a good and original concept, Sid.

Charlie tried to find a way to get the smile wiped off Walter's face, but even the full body mammogram couldn't do it!

Nice image, funny subject and a lot of fun to title.
