It's too bad that tarp was in the way.

Great find..

shame you couldn't get more light on the 'letter'

I will redo it Friiskiwi, thank you :0)

Sweet letter = )

This is cool.. but it has put your other entry in a problem of anonymity.. Good Luck..

The only reason why I was little hesitant about this. However, it cannot be avoided for this, sadly.

Good Luck..

beautiful but i still prefer the A

iquraishi: Thank you.

Lamantine: Both pictures emit different kind of feeling from them. Myself, I prefer the "A" as well. However, I do like the "R" as well just not the same as the other one.

Since the pictures are "two sides of a coin", anonymity was shot...

Both entries are very nice. It's a shame they are going to both get removed. (unless you flag one of them for removal)

beautiful, lovely letter

Thank you very much.

I had a hard time choosing between the A or the R on the pendulum. I decided to go for the A because it was left and I could get a better composition out of it.

nice work author.. but right now there are alot of other elements in the pic than the alphabet.. IMO it would be cool if you can get a closer shot at 'A'.. Good Luck.

iquraishi: I wanted to give little more "depth" to the picture, which is why I did not go as close for the picture. As for getting closer, yes it's possible.

alright.. its cool.. good luck

Thank you.

Yes. That IS very sad. My condolences.

There can be nothing more sad than this. A silent hug from me!

I think it's safe to say you are going to win.

This is so sad, it immediately brought tears to my eyes.

Thank you everyone for your wonderful and heartfelt comments.

I would normally congratulate you for your first place, but that would sound strange in this case... I'm very sorry for you...
