Several people thought it.

I'm pretty happy that some of you liked very much this one. I like to experiment new things. Surely it's a very different/strange angle/style than usual for me but that's what I like in this! I made a huge mistake cloning out the reflection of the studio flashes in the eye - with them the eye shape had much more depth.

It can happen also because of people who haven't voted 20% of the pictures. Probably Dennis' score was even higher than what he got.

In any case a wonderful image!

Tomorrow I'll show you the image I used the room Giles :)

Well, the level can't be wrong for sure. When I take landscape pictures and I find situations like this I prefer to deceive the viewer choosing which is my horizon, but surely it's my choice. In any case a beautiful image - you have many nice landscapes lately :)
