No man is an island, entire of itself
every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main
if a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were,
as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were
any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind
and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls
it tolls for thee.
-- John Donne

Placed fairly well, though I thought it would be a 6+ for you. My vote was one of the 9's. The high key look of this was not to everyone's taste, I suppose.
Nice shot. I would have had the guy a little more to one side and away from the centre, but the cleanness of this composition is really uplifting. So to speak.
