To Lev, ubique, and tnun,
While I already have a special connection to this image, as I feel it has been and continues to be the strongest entry in this aspiring PJ's portfolio, each and every comment I receive like this gives me a refill on inspiration. It's much more than just a "nice shot!"...it's like being slapped with a motivational hand to the face. For that, you have my endless thanks regarding your comments and compliments. |

Thanks, Shutter. As soon as I noticed these gentlemen talking, that's the exact goal I had in mine: putting a positive spin on things! Too much negativity in our day to day, and while there are certainly things to be upset about in the world, you have to count your blessings too...and laugh a little.

Thanks everyone who voted! I think the favorite thing I see about the votes is that no one voted it a 9. I like this, because whoever really loved this image was like 'OH YEAH, 10!" hahaha. I'm proud to be in the top 100. |

you've caught a moment of communication well here, they seem to have their own isolated rapport while the rest are completely oblivious to it, well done and good luck with it |
