Good idea, nicely executed.

Classic stock stuff. Boost the sharpness a bit and boost the colors a smudge. Good luck!

I dont know why, but this one makes me laugh. I really like the poses of the models. Good lighting to.

Probably exactly what the challenge wanted. I think it could be slightly sharper: 9

It is such a nothing picture. The caption is real good.

Very good stock photo. I can see this being used in any number of publications.

Seems to be a yellow colour cast on the ladies legs which is a bit distracting

nice shot looks like she is cheating on a test

Nice idea! Skin tones are a bit yellow, (need to tweak saturation) and your background is a bit gray at top and bottom, you can fix this by making a new layer, cranking the exposure, then erasing through the people, so that just your background gets overexposed, thus, turns more white... OR just dodge the background, Did you use a wide angle lens or aim the camera down? I recently did some pics like this and I found that the best lens to use is a normal (50mm) or more and also to keep the camera in a level plane to the ground, this shot feels like I am looking down on the people's feet from above, Great idea though!

I like the idea, but the lighting seems a bit flat.

This screms stock, IMO. Well lit, nicely composed. Great, expressive models. 8

Like the "story" here, but lighting is uneven and flat below the hips. Could have used more light on the faces as well.

The background has a pink tint to it on my monitor... but other than that, this really works well!

Seems like it would be a good stock photo and well executed
  Photographer found comment helpful.

maybe tweaking the levels or curves to add a bit more punch but otherwise excellent - good luck

Not amusing, not artsy, nor fancy... a perfect stock photo applicable to any number of ads. The best one so far for the challenge. 10!
