Who knew it was so hard to get ahold of white sporks! Got black sporks from Taco Bell and painted them - whatever works right?. My wife and I have been sitting on this idea for a while, waiting for an appropriate challenge...Not sure it turned out exactly as envisioned but we shall see how it does.

HAHAHA! I love it. And we've all seen those packets....

The soft light doesn't work for me, but it may for others. I see the humour but humour is subjective and it may not be the best way to get an image to work.

Just not exciting, I'm sorry to say... and the lighting could be better. I like the humor.

A chuckle always increases the score!

This photo does not seem sharp enough and there's no real direction for my eyes.

Inconsistent lighting, and not the most engaging subject.

3 things for improvement: Color cast, focus, and lighing.

Funny
image is a bit soft though

Funny and creative image!

idea wise, this is hilarious... the execution leaves a bit to be desired...

It feels grainy and the lighting lacks interest. You picked a very hard message to convey.
