Oh wow. A lot of distruction here caused from weather so good use of the challenge. The blurriness, though, is causing distruction of your score of your picture in this challenge.

Good subject for the challenge. Unfortunately, the picture just isn't very clear.

Greets from the Critique Club:

Initial impression:
Nice colors, distracting shadows, jumbled composition.

Challenge:
I admit that I didn't see the connection to time when I voted on this picture, but after reading the comments I now see the connection. Very creative and neat idea. I remember those days fondly.. Unfortunately I've found it doesn't pay to be too creative around here.

Composition/Creativity:
I'm not sure what to say here. The composition feels jumbled and messy, but I have a feeling that's caused by the shadows.

Technical/Post-Processing:
This is where this photo lets me down. The flash is far too harsh. Try more light without the flash nexttime!

Overall:
Not a strong/apparent enough reference to time. Flash. Good idea and great colors though!

Hard to rate this for me as without the title the photo does not show the theme. Nice colors though.

The flash ruins this for me: what could have been a really intersting composition with more intersting lighting.

???? Good color and focus on most of the paper. Flash(?) shadows seem a bit harsh and the lighting on the right edge yellow paper is very harsh. Challenge - without the title, I wouldn't see any connection, with the title, I just don't understand the connection (my bad). 5 Swash
