I just happened across this image again while browsing and noticed that you did it with a point and shoot. I'm even more impressed. More proof that the talent of the photographer is more important than the gear.
Doodyhead voters - this is a sweet image. Excellent eye movement throughout the image provided by the curly-dealy-bob thing-a-ma-jigs, they lead you (me at least) right to the point of focus.
Unsharp elements in the foreground are very dangerous (for getting high votes, that is). I hope it will not be punished too much, because it's an esthetic picture.
