Was thinking of something having authority over something else, something defeating something else, and this is what i came up with.....i hope its valid.

ok, i didnt want to put the idea in the title cos i wanted to make people think about it rather than giving it away. its based on the game Paper Scissors Stone (rock paper scissors for the americans). it was a last minute pic, and i submitted it 2 minutes before the deadline, so i didnt have too much time for composition, angles, lighting etc. the theme was authority and whether this showed the lack of authority or not, it still (to me) shows authority of some kind. they each have authority over the other in the sense that they can each win. hope this clears things up a bit. thanks for the comments!
I didn't get it at first. For some reason I saw the rock as a burn mark on the paper. I like the clever relationship to the challenge. I guess some shadow would help give depth to the rock and give the whole thing more impact.
No great picture but...1-You entered, 2-It's thought provoking and 3- it is to me the most positive idea presented. That, authority is not only restrictive, but permissive as well. That, there are green lights as well as red.
I have never noticed the coincidence of this game to the branches of the United States government. Executive, Legislative, Judicial. Which one is which, do you think? Nice job.
LOL. looks like it's "rock" here. Cute, but the tonality seems very grey. I'm assuming the paper was white, in which case the camera's metering probably wouldn't read the scene right. If the whites were white, much better,
