 I turned my pool room into my photo studio. For this shot I had to clean it off and turn it back into a pool table!

8/21
After viewing the commentary regarding lighting, I have two sets of pool balls. The original set, 20 + years old which are yellowed with age. I chose to to use them because they have more character than my newer set. The yellowing seemed to confuse people regarding the lighting or white balance, it was intentional. If lighting comments were referring to glare spots, I tried to minimize them, but it is difficult using round, shiny objects.

Not fond of the yellowish cast, but otherwise I like this.

Nice idea, not 100% keen on the light.

I like the concept, but the white balance seems off (too warm, orangy). I like the curvature of the line up, the sequence numbering, and the DOF.

A nice take on the theme. It's minor, but the blurred edge of the pool table on the bottom bugs me.
