I could have lived without the title. As a voter I don't like to be told how I'm going to be seeing the photo and voting on it.

That aside - this has a real wow factor. It's beautifully captured and composed. I also like the processing a lot. I'll give it the vote that was my first impulse before I read the stupid title. 8
