Stunning job meeting the theme. The translucence of the aged one's skin drives home the transience of our stay, along with the ravages of arthritis. I like how we're led in and out with the blue sleeves at both ends. Congrats on your ribbon!

Nice idea, interesting hands and lighting. Might be better with a little DOF and distance separation from the blanket for less distraction and more focus on the hands.
