This is a great shot - I even love that the games are so worn to show a theme through time. The top right corner (guessing a wall?) caught my eye but I don't think it was distracting to the photo. Nicely done!

This is a great shot, I love board games, I just can't get enough of them. I think the games are organized great and the composition is good. I wish that the dof was larger though. I'm guessing you didn't have enough light to stop down since your ss was so low. Maybe using a flash could have helped. The flash also would help with my next point, I don't like the shadows underneath the lids. Some might like them, so I guess it is personal taste, but they are distracting to me. This is a nice shot though.

I like the composition of this shot. Just wish that the lighting was a bit better. Everything is too yellow and too shadowed for me. I'd like to see whiter whites and some fill flash.

Another very nostalgic feel...Love it! Great job!

i like this one it looks like a good old picture. i think the yellow helps with the feel. what is behind the games. i really like this one great idea.

I love how the games are old and worn out. I like how you stacked them and filled the whole picture with these childhood games!!

I love how the games are so worn out! And I'm sure we all try to avoid those busy backgrounds, and in this case I think you did a good job accomplishing that. I didn't notice that corner till Melody pointed it out, it just blended in with the games. And the way they're stacked shows "childhood" very well. I don't know any kid that would have stacked them straight.

I love the idea of the old games and how tattered and torn they look. They look just like the boxes of the games we use to have when I was a kid (Love the masking tape on the sides). I think they are stacked a little too nicely but that doesn't matter, it was a great shot.

I really like this one too. I think the white balance and lighting could use some improvement but I could see this hanging in my family room by the game closet!

you can not alter lighting in a copy shot. Not that there is anything wrong with the original . Shadows and yellowing are what make nostalgia nolstagiac. The white in the corners are photo corners.

This shot brings back lots of childhood memories for me. I love the way they're stacked. The angle on his is nice.

Thanks for the CC!! I tried taking this shot from different angles, but this one looked the best to me. I didn't mind the shadows. These games aren't used much anymore, so the shadows kind of lend to the dark room that I keep them in.
These games are really yellow - from age! CWB would not likely have helped here!
