Does the photo have aesthetic merit in its own right, or is it given

impact just because we're looking down the barrel of a gun?

I think this could be sold for a home security poster something like, (This home protected by Sam Colt and agents enter at your own risk)Therefore Under the general laws of said State of_______. You have been warned! Home owner assumes no responsibility of life or injuries that may incur. Law enforcement has been advised! If you are reading this, you are under camera surveillance!

Hi, I attached your photo as I see it with my warning, I hope you approve!

I like the back light effect. With or without the handgun the image is pretty nice. The color is good, the lack of texture on the subject's head (read bald) is powerful. The handgun did add a little more focus.
