I really like this one. It definitely grabbed me right off. I really don't have any suggestion for improvement. Framing/cropping is excellent, as well as exposure.
Time Passing was a challenge that I suggested to DPChallenge. Your picture perfeclty reflects what I wanted the challenge to convey. A lot of entries to this challenge depicted 'passing time' which is completely different.
I was going to try this idea for my entry. didn't in the end as I thought I would fail to make a decent shot out of it. You have excelled. This is a great entry and hits the challenge on the head for me.
heh, I was recently trying to take a shot like this, though not for this challenge. I think you pulled it off well, and I think the macro nature of it makes it stand out much more than including more of the glass. Nice job!
Best of show in my opinion. Color, comp, focus, DOF, shutter speed are all superb. Even the border is okay and I usually hate borders. Hope it ribbons.
Without the title, I wouldn't have know what this was right away. The image is very feminine, and the line is graceful and beautiful. The artist does an outstanding job of capturing the of the movement of the sand and the steady march of time. Creative and risky. Bravo.
