With one little PS about the type only cause the pic is great-- 2011 could be spaced more evenly. I know it's how it came out, but tightening the kerning in the two ones, one at a time. The way one assesses the spacing is to think in terms of the amount of overall negative space between the letters and they usually should be roughly equal to the eye. Keeping the type in balance is important.
Right now the 2 and 0 are tight, the next 1 has more space than between the 2 and 0, and then the last 1 is much farther. One usually doesn't bother with this kind of thing for body copy, but headlines/titles are crafted with an eye on proportion.
I do love that image though.
<EDIT: um, on second look the 2 and the 0 might have more space, compared with "SPRING", and you can work out the balance thing however it feels best. But I was hasty in which needs to be spaced differently. But it's the same idea overall.>
