life does seem to get harder as you get older! A good composition with each hand in opposite corners. Good job!

After voting on all of the shots in the challenge, I'm coming back and changing my vote on this one to a 10. One of my two favorites, and possibly the best in the entire category from a fine art perspective. This could hang in a museum. The placement of the hands and they character that they portray, without showing any semblance of a face, is just phenomenal. Another thing that contributes is the simple color scheme. The color in the shirt is matched perfectly by the cane. Composition is so strong dynamically, and I can't get over how much this says, in a quiet manner. This shot is a rare work and will be added to my favorites.

Awesome subject -- one of the best of this challenge! Seems like the colors could have been just a teeny bit more bold, but still a 9 in my book.
