The photo would have looked more natural on the desk than on the chair...

LOL! Nice composition. I like the play on the Bible verse title and the pic. Good use of imagination.

Comment by HBunch:
I am assuming that this train belonged to the gentleman in the photo. Personally, I think the photo would have looked better if it were up on the table. It would look more natural that way. Where it is now, it is crooked and kind of distracting from the actual subject of the train. I like how the train reflects in the floor. I am a little confused about the walls though. Are they really that color? I think in order to make that look right, you would have had to seperate the photo right down the middle with the 2 colors. I am thinking you cut off the back part of the train to get the string in the photo. If you scooted the train to the right a bit and set the string off to the side of the train, it would have still looked as good, and would have gotten the entire train in the photo. The lighting is great for this, and the detail of this train is excelent. Very nice job. Good luck in the challenge.

The train looks lovely on the floor, but the inclusion of furniture, skirting board and so much wall don't enhance it for me.
If the floor is big enough, it would be good if it was the entire background.

I really like the train. I would have focused on it more, especially with that nice shiny floor.

I think this train is a nice subject for this photo :) Maybe some nice depth perception could have been added by photographing jus the train from an angle... The photograph in the chair seems a little out of place here thought... It looks like it was specifically placed here to add some element to the photo, but I'm unsure what the intention is with that... good shot :) - jmsetzler

I like the train a lot. A close up of it reflecting off the floor in some way would look really cool. But I still like what you've done here.

nice composition, would be an even better photo if it were in black and white i think. the old furniture and and the photo completes the shot.
