I think it would stand out better if there weren't the lights in the background.

Dump. I catch myself looking at shots like that, when I scroll through ZoomBrowser after emptying a cf card, and thinking "hmmm....maybe this is actually good in some way", and not deleting it. My folders quickly filled up with shots like this that I'm honestly never going to do anything with.

Today, on my daily batch review, I made myself delete everything except those that were actually decent shots, or that I wanted to save to review the exif and ended up with very few images, and felt better for it. And it will make managing my images SO much easier down the road. I've only been shooting dslr for a month, and my "My Pictures" folder is wildly obese.
