Thank you for commenting my shot in the movies. This one is pretty nice and "incredibly exciting"!
:)
It should go higher!

I thought about this long and hard...

My biggest problem is that red & green are opposites. Because of that the poison is really difficult to see. I read the other comments...I don't have a problem with the numbers showing on the beaker, just the inability to focus on the poison.

Perhaps a different table covering (or even a lighter shade of red)...but I think that solution would take away from the story.

I would go with a black or a yellow poison color.

And perhaps just a hint of a cross (again, maybe simplicity is better), but they do die trajically.

Interesting concept. The lighting and composition need some changes though to make a great photograph as well as a great concept. Perhaps a more interesting angle and a softer lighting would have helped a bit

Those two were dorks.

I lik the image, and the concept. I think the DOF would have been better very shallow so that you could have blurred the red backdrop a bit. That might have given the image that little extra something that it is missing.

Smart idea. One suggestion, try a white cloth background? Might add a little more punch with the colors.
