 Didn't really see anything good leading up to the deadline and I had an idea like this as a backup. About a half hour before the deadline I started this. It actually did a lot better than I expected.

I hear the Mission impossible as Johnny Socket dons a disguise to put a plug into the leaky crime circuits:-)

Simple and clean composition. Lighting is good but the dark color tones especially that of the cream yellow hue don't have any eye-popping contrasts like a white wall socket would on that dark backdrop. Not much one can do with the exception of selecting it and then upping the brightness/contrast to punch the contrast up a bit. But that might be a bit much for just 'finding' the right object with a face. I wondering if a vertical crop would have been better to complement the shape of the wall socket. Now that I am looking at it more I am seeing Dirk Dastardly type in that socket and the striped backdrop is invoking an idea that this a vaudeville type short where the villian with the stache straps the lady to the train tracks. Or I might be seeing way too much into this:-) Creative composition and well done, but I wish the contrasts were greater and that the mouth had more of a smile or frown. Still it earns a 7.

Very good. I saw the faces on my outlets, but couldn't think of anything original to do with them.
