Taking a break
by Yo_Spiff

Comment:
its a shame that the voters can be so particular .. and dont see how a pic can totally satisfy the challenge even if there seems to be a major player that seems to take over ..
i loved this in voting .. and i love it now ..
i was one of your 8's btw .. :)

edit to say ..
oh .. i think I worded that wrong ..
what I meant was ..
you can still satisfy the challenge even when a major player seems to take over from the challenge subject .. :)

The Barrier Beach

Comment:
surprised about the placement of this ..
there's one thing i want to add to the comment i made during voting .

loving the sting ray in the water ..
and yes i know there isnt a sting ray there .
just the shadow of a cloud .
but in my reality the stingray is just chillin there in the water .. possibly observing those land-locked creatures he can see if he sticks his head above the waves ..
this is great .. :)

i think this was a very high voting challenge .. and your competition was fierce .
but in my reality this would definitely have come in the top 5 .
the colours and the clouds are incredible ..
it might be a slight optical illusion but it seems like i can see the curve of the earth on the horizon .
how great is that . !! ..
