i think this would have been more effective if more of the walkway blocks were included to lead you in, instead of the sky.

Interesting concept for the tools challenge. It's a little difficult to find the subject because the top of the sundial blends so well with the horizontal line defined by the top of the grass. This highlights on the girl's back also tend to pull away from the sundial.

At a glance I thought this said "suicidal" ... I was so confused as to how it fit the challenge!
I love that you included the steps, the shadows, and the sky =)

Interesting composition, but if the sundial is the focus point, it's very hidden.

A sundial is a great tool. Too bad she is blocking the sun to tell what time it is.

might be nice to see the sundial closer, all I see there is "girl's shadow half past grass blade 8,900,234"

the figure takes away from the sundial, which is not very visible
