 The last open challenge was Language not Luggage. When I first took a peek at it, I thought that it was luggage. I could have sworn that it said that. All week I was trying to take an image of luggage. Several different nites I worked on this until the last day, I borrowed my friends old suitcase, and capture this one
Can you believe my eyes when I went to tweak the title of my entry, and saw "Language" as the theme. I pulled it out at the last few hours. I feel really dum. I really thought that I had a chance at a ribbon with "Luggage" as a theme.

Yea! June 22, 2009

I love this!!!!!!! Love the colours and composition and really love how the peeling blue paint looks like a map of the world. Brilliant!

Ooooh, and I just noticed the crack in the suitcase lines up with the crack in the background.

I keep coming back to this, I like it so much. If I could give you a 20 I would!! Good luck, hope to see this on the front page.

Great perspective. Nice colour and composition - like the way you matched the crack up to the stain on the suitcase. Well done.

I like how the line on the briefcase matches the line in the cracked floor. Was this intentional?
