We have one of those door knockers from France! I love everything about this: the image is superbly french and your very fitting personification of opportunity a delight to read! Well done and good luck! A strong contender in my book! Debbie

Comment from Mark Jackson
I didn't get this the first time I read it. I am afraid when I read text I was thinking about a script. When I managed to get my head out of Shakespearean times I realised it was a rather clever little joke. In the UK there was an old TV program called Opportunity Knocks. I don't know where the saying comes from; probably Shakespeare.

That's good! So many of us have opted to text for everything. The worst thing to text that I've heard of is to break off a relationship. Seems like people have forgotten how to talk and listen. Opportunities are things to be listened for! Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from Douglas Goff
Dang, Jessica that is damn good. Excuse my French. You nailed this one over the fence.
Now, my favorite part is that the hand has a ring in it. That is awesome artisan detail that you really do not see these days!
Fantastic total package.

Good play on the phrase "opportunity knocks." I like this knock on the cyber age. But to tell the truth, I like a phone call before someone comes for a visit. Just so I look presentable.
