Super well-deserved blue ribbon here. Thematically, technically, and more--just a cut above the rest. Pun intended, of course. ;-)

The blade, the hands, and the black and white processing all work so well together. I love the crisp details but my fave is the subtle reflection.. A very deserving blue winner. Congratulations, markwiley
