Date: Apr 26, 2011
Date Uploaded: Apr 26, 2011

 With less than 20 entries how can i resist. Quick setup, crap lighting and a fast basic edit - this is what you get. Not as traumatic as my last one yet not as bad as my first one. Lets see how many one votes i get.

And go figure - my first challenge was 7 deadly sins as is my 400th.

Good attention to detail Tim.....lamp shades askew, dirt on the floor (hmmmm, maybe it's always that way!!!)

I was going to compliment you on the hours you must have spent preparing this shot and then I suddenly remembered what my bedroom looks like right now...

I have a feeling this is not a set up shot :). Then again, the plate seems clean, the clothes ironed and both lights are standing up... but the bed is perfect. I love it! :)

Ack! It took me so long to write my original critique of this shot that it timed out and didn't accept my vote... and my whole thing got eaten up! Stupid computers.

Anyway... this was vote #250,000 for me, and I like to leave in-depth comments on milestone votes like this. So here goes... again.

Unless my face-recognition skills are going downhill, it looks like timfythetoo is the lucky recipient of vote 250,000! And the crowd goes wild :)

My first impression is that this isn't in the upper echelon of your work. I always enjoy the humor and photographic quality of your work... I think of shots like the Tooth Fairy that just about made me spit Pepsi on my computer screen. This one tells a fun story, and meets the challenge perfectly, but doesn't leave me in awe like some of your other shots.

I guess, ironically, the shot is just too cluttered for my taste, which is of course what you were going for. It leaves me without a good focal point to rest my eyes on. But I could make just as good an argument that this quality is what makes the shot better because it makes me want to explore it better, from the pizza boxes, to the laptop, to the piles of clothes.

And it is a plus that you're eating Fox's Pizza Den pizzas! I have done a lot of work with the folks at the Fox's corporate office... I did the programming behind their web site, and did the design work for many years. I also work with many of their franchises. Of course this has absolutely nothing to do with your shot now, does it? :)

Anyway, as I look at the shot I also can't help but wonder: "Does his bedroom always look this way?" Hope not! ;)

I'm giving it a 6... just enough creativity here to bump it up to "a little above average" for me. Good luck!

Gross but especially disturbing are the dirty feet and the underrods with skidmarks in the foreground.
