wot shamer said ... "I'd trust the average DPC voter to spot a great a photo like I'd trust my 3yo to drive me cross country blindfolded" ... i couldnt have put it better myself ... coz i've had similar thoughts about many challenges ...

your photo just jumped out at me today .. i hadnt seen it before ... it is a superb work ..
it slowly dawned on me what this picture is about, because it wasnt immediately obvious ... and the title is exceptional ...
it is a wonderful image not just because of the excellent treatment, grain, composition, colour, EVERYTHING! ... but the emotion it brings out in the viewer .. i reckon thats wot photography is all about and to create an emotion in another person with a photograph is awesome ..
my condolences to you and your family ...
