Wow. I'm impressed that you could convey so much feeling in this one and you don't even get to see the expression on the subjects face. Wonderful textures and the colors help to set the mood. Really nice!

Oh...poor guy! I think this picture would have affected me more if I could have seen more of his face...still....a moving shot! :)

The title conveys what you are trying to capture but without it, I would have some questions. Nice photo.

This photo really stirred the emotions in me! I guess this is every one's secret fear to become old and alone...great job...love how you captured the hands that have an expression all their own..

Better in B/W to give it that retro '50s feel?

I think this could be a better pictue with more of the person's face and less of the hand. It is nevertheless very good. Fits the challenge, and is well done

textures are great, the hand over the ear, the colors...all of this one works for me
it also raise lots of questions and theories the way a good piece ought to

Although you have captured the mood of the theme, there is something that is not working for me in this shot. I think it might be the fact that the hand is so much the focal point. I would much rather see more of the face and perhaps some expression.

Noisy pictures don't work very much in color, B/W would be definitely better !
