Okay, I'd better never hear again from you about my needing to leave Team Suck. :P That's all I'm sayin'. Well, and congrats on the shot and the finish. :)

Ok Deb, what's the deal here. You're starting to get too many good shots for team suck. Excellent job.

I really like the symplicity of this one, and also the balance, composition, and crop, as they all work together to produce this really good image.....Well done Deb, and a great finish for you.....

Well done Deb. I expected this to place higher but a 6+ score and top 20 is nothing to sneeze at.

I like the way the book isnt centered in the photo. It creates more value this way. Great Job.

Lovely shot. Great DOF and the slight sepia b&w tones work very well. Clean and simple. Back to bump you up to 9. One of my favorites in the challenge.

Oh, I do like the literal title and subject (pun intended). It's simple and to the point. Nothing I say can improve this.

I hope it does well. I'm giving it high scores.
