Hi guys,

This is the first time I've submitted here. I usually won't submit my stuff for critique, but I really like this composition and want to ask for your opinions/suggestions:

Good choice, if a little hard to appreciate at the small size it displays.

Oh, sorry, if you click on the ALL SIZES at the top you can look at it through different sizes.

Has a nice '50's feel to it.

great idea and a lovely pair of photographs

couple of points.

the couple of points glaring white flare on the tables distract me. lots.

The faux photo corners look awful. They might work if they weren't just flat white triangles. but they are. and thats all i see.

Always easier to write lots about the negative aspects than the positive.

I like the idea. It's got a good story. (i'd be tempted to put it on either side of an album page rather than one above the other......just a thought)

Haha..the corners were just from some photoshop action. I just wanted to see how it looked like if it was sorta framed. But taking it off isn't a bad idea. With respect to the candle flares, I can make them a little dimmer. Thanks for the input.

Actually, these are my friends and I did print and frame these pics side by side rather than top and bottom when I gave them the photos. But having them side by side is like spoon feeding the image to the viewer, which I didn't like. The dead space between the two is inherent if the photos are top and bottom, but the emphasis decreases by a lot when put side by side.

Very nice. Indeed, a neo-retro feel to it.
