Well done Bruce on another Family win!
I didn't see it either :( Opps... Maybe if it was placed in a strong point like the tip of the pen it would have stood out more.

| Aside from meeting the challenge by the straightforward expdient of putting the words in the shot - and the more genuine sense of the challenge by it being a shot of a crossword - I find this a slightly uncomfortable image. The differentiation between whites and greys seems overly definite, rather than progressive, and your composition places odd things in the strong areas of frame - the 'passing time' is releggated from visual interest by being so far toward the edge. I think many voters will simply see a crossword shot. |

| Meets the challenge but to me it feels weak in composition. You've done a nice job with focus. and I tend to like shallow depth of field, although voters here seem not to. Levels could use some work. A bit greater saturation of the glasses might add a bit of pizazz. In the end, I am handicapped because I consider crossword puzzles a waste of time and I therefore don't find the subject all that interesting. I am sure there are uses for this in Stock Photos where the meaning is added through combining the photo with other content. Sorry to seem negative. |

| very busy composition, I get the feeling of frantic activity rather than time passing- but there is a nice frustrating feel. |

| Great idea. I would have gotten rid of the glasses, used a contrasting colored pen and let the image speak for itself. A more powerful focal point would tighten the message for me. |

| Interesting idea. But I think you're off base on 77 across. ;-) |

MOEY?? You're not allowed to just make up words to fill in the gaps!!!
(my dictionary says it doesn't exist, but maybe it means something where you are)
Very good pic though I bet a lot of people don't even notice "passing time" on the puzzle, even with the title as a hint |
