[i] i want to apologize if this title offended any. when i was thinking of a title, this is the first one that cmae to mind, and i wanted to use "why, god" and i forgot the comma, and some thought i was asking the wrong thing...i'm a strong believer, and did not mean any disrespect by this in any manner. sometimes we feel like asking God why things happen, but then there's beautiful places like this that make us realize He's powerful and we shouldn't ask why...just thought i'd clarify. have a great week :D

Beautiful colors. The jet stream goes through the guy's hand and rests on his head. Wondering about meaning of title without comma after "Why". Good rule of thirds.
Nice picture. Looks like Beaver Lake, NY. But I don't like the title one bit. It doesn't look like a 'God' theme to me, more of an expanse, infinite questions, great unexpored horizons/futures... not desolation and loneliness.
Love it! I'm guessing you had to hold this pose (which is a pose I use quite often in my own photos) for a good 30 seconds or more, yet, you've got crisp sharpness around the hands. Well done with that. I like the lone star.
