American Association of Retired Persons. I hope this comes across. I know it's dark, but every time I tried to alter it, it got grainier. I didn't want to use flash because I was trying not to disturb the gentlemen.

i dont think this is too dark at all. the darkness of it suits the image real well, it looks like theyre talking about something secret, or real important

Retired are we ? Nice capture but is a bit dak imo, perhaps the focus also got the wall not the people. Good Luck

A very good idea - and looks like the kind of place that people may associate AARP-aged individuals with. A bit dark and lacking in contrast to do justice to your subjects. The thing that draws my eye most is the napkin on the one gentleman's lap.

I like the thought behind this, but it seems a bit dark.

Very clever interpretation. I like the idea, but something leaves me wanting more. Maybe if the men were sharper. The guy on my left seems ok, but the one on the right a little soft. Also the shadows are a little too dark for me (specifically under the table). 6

A true acronym! Could be a little sharper tho. Maybe a little lighter?
