Good photo. The new hammer tends to get lost in this dark background.

I love the composition of this photo and the black background. I think maybe a brand new hammer would have suited this photo much better though. Untouched handle and shinning hammer head-- would have made the "new" stand out more.

Good expression of challenge & title. Would like to have seen the new a little sharper.

I like the metaphor for relationships in this picture (I'm thinking the young having to take care of the old since it looks like the newer hammer is carrying the older, cradling it without arms). Very good.
