Really difficult in 'Basic' - I'd have liked a cleaner edit but without any spot editing this is the best I can do.

I hope I don't get pulled up for the 90 degree rotation, I think the symmetry is more effective in this orientation.

very nice. looking close - the bubble makes the image - outstanding - because its not reflected. at least for me. a subtle hint at how it was made.

Incredible image. I only gave you an 8, but upon ref... I can't say it. Bottom line, you deserved this ribbon, man. Excellent.

Congratulations on the red. I love this image and I think the rotation (which I recognized) does make the image stronger. Well done. Fave.

As soon as I saw the thumbnail I knew this would ribbon, and I remembered the other image you took of these guys. I just love how a simple rotation can take a great image to WOW! Congrats.

This is a stunner - hope it does well for you. My prediction for blue (not voting, just looking and commenting)

Darn good image and setup with off cam flash too. Pity its basic, I'm sure you'd clone the waterborne dust out.

Cool title, great capture. Well done.

Nice. You must have been patient to capture this or a secret way to get them to pose.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/17/2010 12:13:32 AM
Wow. Great reflection. I'm not sure you needed to rotate the image, but that's just personal preference on my part.
