What's a lil sensor dust in an image like this but a distinguishing mark of an honest capture. ;-) Great photo!

Mamma mía!! A blue ribbon! And a second ribbon in a week! wow! Thank you all for commenting and scoring! Wish I could have cleaned out that sensor dust, But I couldnt :) Didnt want to crop the black part of it either, And I have outtakes where I have the model looking up in the waterfall But on that picture the waterfall looked blurry, So I chose this one. Thanks again! I´m gonna have a bottle of Lýsi to celebrate! :DMessage edited by author 2004-04-21 01:35:23.

Every now and then, I come across a photo that speaks, and this is one of them. Strength dominates this image, as mother nature is full of incredible forces. Man is not even a challenge for the strength of nature. The diminuitive size of the man in this photo accents that theme quite well. This is a GREAT shot.
I'm trying to get away from commenting on technicals/technique, but this photo begs me to ask a question and make a suggestion as well. I don't know if this is just a candid shot of this man, but IF this person is posed for you in this scene, why did you choose to have him facing to the left rather than facing and looking up at/into the waterfall? Personally, I think this would make it even stronger.
Regardless, this is my 'best of show' in this challenge... Kudos on a great shot.
