Not only the saturated blues, but also the tan, light brown beach or shoal, and that runny egg yolk. All the more poignant because it's a view of this very world.

what Rich said ..

We can only pray that it's not all like this, and there's a plenitude of light as well in his life. I don't know how to say anything more. No doubt a terrific photograph.

Rich always has a wonderful way of expressing what i can find difficult to put into words ..
the not rating this challenge .. i felt exactly the same ..
and about the child too ..

this is one photo i wont forget in a long time ..
to even have the confidence to take such a photo .. of someone suffering ..
that is what often distinguishes a good photographer from a great photographer ..
going where angels fear to tread almost ..

many congratulations on such a raw image .. and of course the blue ribbon .. :)
