I don't get a feeling of nostaligia, but I feel that this would be a good picture for questioning the place of religion in the United States currently. The thinker and the bible what a concept.

Lighting is really good on both the thinker statue and the bible. The bright light on the bible gives it a halo and brings out the point of religion more.

I think a larger white frame may help bring out the picture more then a smaller one.

Beside from the challenge, I think this is an excellent image. Very creative and the tones are excellent.

Certainly is a thing of the past. Darwin rocks.

It's a very nice image, but it seems more historical than nostalgic to me.

Yeah, well, I don't know if it is a nestalgia so much as something that is still being worked on. After all, it is considered a living religion and tradition, they don't necessarily wish for the past or regret it's passing, (infact I hope not, considering the bloody mess Christianities history holds). Still I like the imagery because it could go for any form of reading or tradition in which books played a heavy part.

Without the title, we would have no indication that this is about Christianity.

Not a bad idea, though the shot is soft and the title uses poor grammar both of which detract from communicating your thought.

Very nice photograph. I love the composition and the lighting is especially good. It doesn't work for me in Nostalgia.

I did not really understand even with the title how the picture related to Nostalgia
