great idea and flawless execution, with great attention to all details including making the wonderful highlight on the nail with a flashlight (made me wonder where the nail shadow was :)). Congrats on the 1st place, Anna, well deserved!

this is a fantastic juxtaposition, Steve! Looks totally believable... I am assuming this a mural on the wall... great work.

I think I agree with Ecce, I'd also prefer the image "in full force" and perhaps the poem semi-transparent on the right (right-indented) as an "afterthought". Strong image, and a beautiful poem.

By the way, even though I know it is a medical necessity, I find it very symbolic that many old people wear dark glasses, as they want to guard their inner world from the outside world which is zooming by way too fast ...
