Wishing you were here...

My goal with this one was to score a 5.5 with a "out of the box" postcard submittal. I was thinking that not all postcards are vacations or happy scenes. Some may be travelling for other reasons such as serving our military overseas or a work trip away from home. Either way this would represent that type of postcard. This pic says to me that a daughter misses her Dad while he is away and Mom bought the postcard and sent it to Dad wherever he may be.

Thanks for comments and votes.

Thank you for your votes. I was hoping to hit the 6 mark and possible a PB. Missed the PB by a slight margin but I'm really happy with the score. I really liked the way this turned out and appreciate the comments below.

Thank you all for your comments. I was hoping for a PB of 6.13 or better but I'm happy with 5.75. The light coming in the top right was supposed to represent the stagelights.
