Thanks for the comments. My thinking was that red might attract the most attention. But you may be right.
My rationale behind the tittle was that in trying to get ahead of each other the 'focus' is always on the self but we may differ slightly in our 'direction' . :-)
I like this composition and I think it fits the challenge really well, but I wish the brighter colored pencil was the one in focus. The red seems to be now, but it's kind of hard to tell as my eyes keep getting drawn (!) to the yellow. :)
