 I sure am disappointed about the "averageness" of the votes that this got. While I realize there were many outstanding shots out there, I was really hoping this would do better.
This image, IMO, satisfied the challenge in THREE ways:
1. Minimal Editing
2. Minimal Subject in Frame
3. Minimal Desires in Life (the fact, that there's nothing else to eat or drink and all he wants is more beer!)

Oh well....at least I got a really CLEAN fridge out of the process! LOL! And I'm still enjoying how clean my fridge is weeks later!

...and I don't even drink beer!

Thank you to those who scored this picture above a 6...I see there are lots of you out there.

But I guess I still have a lot of work to do here to try and capture a photo that everyone will love!

I loved this shot, it was soooo original. Yes, the beer was out of focus and I should have knocked it down to 9 but I thought the shot was clever and met the chellenge exceptionally well. Thought this would have rated much much better than it did. Cheers

Blandly lit and out of focus. Better luck next time, though!

Funny shot! You did a good job of cleaning that frige. The lighting is good, and although it seem to meet the challenge, I find the refrigerator to be much more the subject than the bottle and list.
