I am truly amazed! Not only by the dreamy exquisiteness of the photography here -- but what you model had to do to help you achieve this! She should be appointed to knighthood! Not to long ago, I was walking along the Pacific Coast and the cold tide came up over my feet, and I thought I was going to die before I could get out of the bitterly cold water. It literally made my feet cramp up and feel extreme pain. When I saw this, I imagined that what she was feeling was at least a hundred times more painful! And she looks so easy and relaxed. Jeeeeez. I am in awe! This is unforgettable art!

Oh, DARN, Miles!!! DARN ! Well, I just read thru the comments, and I'm very happy to see that you have such a great perspective on the whole DQ thing. It really IS about the beauty of this phenomenal photo and what its significance is to your family. I had a ribbon disqualified once because I unknowingly did something illegal in editing; then recently had one disqualified but it ended up getting reinstated, but I took the whole DQ process harder than you. Can I be you when I grow up????? :)

Just keep sharing these amazing works of art with us! We will all grow from your work!
