 OK, taking a chance by putting a trailer "blurb" in, but I'm doing it anyway because I think it's funny.

Greetings from the Critique Club Elizabeth!

First impression: Good shot. Needs a bit more color to appease the voters but I find it quite nice.

Tough image for me to critique as the technicals are pretty much all there. The lighting leaves the color a bit flat but I don't think that's what hurt your overall score here. The thing that got you is the added "blurb". People really toughened up on images that even had an "a" in between the words (Don't Pour "a" Coke, Did "a" Peacock Crow) so I'm not surprised yours was voted down for adding more info in parenthesis. Other than that I think it's fine.

Overall a good image.

Thanks for the opportunity to critique this photo Elizabeth!

Cheers - Phil

Gret title , invokes all sorts of creepy visions ... and is let down by the pic a little. I'd love to see something looking a littl more dangerous that his rather amused look. The pic would be good with a cheeky title etc etc

Harry Potter is poisoning the pot! Nice dramatic simple composition. The lighting is rather dull, though, as are the colors.

Who will it be? Nicely taken and composed photo. Not sure about the stripy base under the pot. Not a whole lot of drama here - but I guess that there are many types of film!
