Very good shot, I especially like the shadows adding a little mystery to the theme... Maybe a different carpet - but I can imagine laying down on this carpet to read....

I think the absence of a noticable background would help the boost artistic value....

Nice colours! The towel/ carpet background seems at odds with the mags/ books. The composition doesn't balance (for me).

When my dad would go out of town, my mom and i would watch scary movies all night. This is a good photo. I like the oldness of the subjects. The lighting is good, but there is a shadow going across the entire photo. It looks like the cross bars from a window. It is a bit distracting, but nothing serious. The angle and frame placement is great. Good luck in the challenge.

This composition could be better i think.Maybe more books and in a more shuffled way so only parts show through, or shot in B&W.

Boy Howdy but you got the concept a lot of folks had... just without the creepiness or madness. Cool.
