I liked this when you showed it on the Pany forum. It was my favorite of the group that you showed. I am very happy that it showed up here so that others can see it. Congratulations! -Bill

A image full of history and emotion...the hands tell the whole story and it is especially effective with the b/w tones! Congratulations on your POTD!

Thanks, Kumiko, Joyce, and Linn - you're comments are encouraging - that's the effect I was going for - to tell a story and to have you see it with emotion...thanks!
