 Awesome shot.  I'm not sure I can tell you anyway to improve it, so I'll just tell what i like about it.  the composition is really strong to me, I think because it forms sort of a triangle between the lamp, paper and hand.  At first, I thought the lamp was a touch overexposed, but upon looking at it more, I like it like that because the brightness of the lamp and the relative darkness of the paper, though it is so close to the lamp, really gives a feeling of past times.  Great subject idea, and one that I, as well as others, I'm sure, can really relate to.
 
 Keep up the awesome work
 God Bless

		| | Hey, thank you all!!  I thought this wasn't over until tonight, so here I was going to check my score to see how the pict was doing, and I see it front page.  It's been a strange Summer :) 
 Thanks again,
 
 Ursula
 
 PS - that is my handwriting, although I tried to make it look a bit hurried and messy.

		| | The date and the choice of pen are a nice touch. Not sure if the pen really would have looked just that way or not (looks a little too crisp to me, but I don't know pens through history), but the feel of it is just right. This is great. |

		| | Impersonating the past is not within my interpretation of the challenge... as this letter is being written at the present snapshot time, it's not really the past. |

		| | Wonderful.  As this loaded from top to bottom, I was thinking "What kind of pen is he writing with" when the full photo loaded, I was pleased to see.  You put some thought into this shot, and I think that it shows.  Focus and clarity are just awesome.  Really nice job. The angle and framing/cropping are perfect in my opinion.  Nice tones, and the lamp adds to the shot as well.  One of my favorites so far. ~Heather~ |
