 I shot this at the campus bar, while drunk. Looked interesting when i woke up the next day :) I know lots of people wont "get" it, since they probably wont read the title, but i dont mind..

used neatimage to get rid of the massive grain, but since the exif info didn't get saved for this image, i dont know what the settings were. It probably automatically took a really high ISO..

Nice shot. I've been there. I like the slight blurryness and almost magical feeling to the light and smoke. 8

Excellent shot!! This would be completely over the top if the mic stand was in focus. Otherwise, excellent job! -9

A tripod would really help this shot out. The motion blur really detracts from the shot. The lighting and smoke is a very nice touch.

NIce image, if you had got that mic a little bit more in the light it would have been better. I like it a lot though. Good job i give you a 9

GREAT! My favourite so far. I wonder why I give you a 10! Cos you deservi it with this shot! Good light, nice idea and I wish I could take shots like that too! Good luck to you

Really nice image. Lighting and color are very good. Framing is really nice too. The blur is a littlebit distracting. Without the title, it doesn't speak much of despair though... Because of that, I feel it didn't meet up with the challenge. I'm lowering my score a bit. 6/10

I really like this, even though I think the picture could be sharper. 6.
