I love shooting, and I love the United States. But nothing about this picture met the challenge of "For Sale" to me. Had it been on the counter in a gun shop, though, it would have.

I think different lighting might make this better. Maybe lighting from the side, rather than direct flash. Is the picture, by the way, satirical?

This is a political statement. Not a "for sale" picture.

I disagree, but I can't fault the photo. Could be brightened a bit in levels or curves.

I bet this gets hammered due to the gun content nice shot.

I hate guns and think they should be illegal.

Love the idea, and though the content is dramatic enough I would of liked to see a more dramatic lighting set-up. Still awesome, and gutsy. I'm going to be interested in seeing how this one does, I'll be watching.

How do you like the title "Souls for Sale". Again a title like that would of probably damaged your avg. The way you have it is probably smarter, because you can't tell one way or another what the message is. GL.

Why would one want to? Anyway - Without the caption there is no connection to "sale" visible for me.

Don't need one, thanks. Too bad you clipped the handle on the gun. Good contrast overall.

This doesn't really speak "for sale" to me, other than the title.
