If anyone has vision, I think it's you. But even with that, and pardon me for suggesting it, but the white walls are what I feel let this excellent picture down. Perhaps a darker background with the light shinning up like it is now would have helped isolate Pandora in her own world? Say a blue? Anyway, good idea.

This failed attempt was to show Pandora holding down the lid to keep hope from escaping. In mythology a rival god gave her the box as a gift which she openned. It was a trick. The box was filled with all the evils of the world and hope at the very bottom. She rushed to close the lid but all but hope had escaped. She dare not move to keep hope from escaping out of our hearts.

This is a picky detail, but then again picky details can make or break the shot. It really distracts me that one foot is covered and the other is exposed.

I like this photo but it has a very studio feel to it. Lovely colours.

it's almost there, but it still feels a little home-made
