Editing notes: The background was clutterred so I did some heavy vignetting to draw focus. Since the box was low key, I thought a bleach bypass would be complimentary to those colors. I should have used film grain instead of output sharpening, since the interaction between nik Sharpener and Topaz DeNoise is strange.
