I like the negative space. This is great! what lens did you use? You might want to boost saturation next time. The letters seem a little grey. Nice job not blowing out the whites.

Hey Toy

I have been admiring your work since I have joined this site. You certainly have perfected the art of lighting your models and capturing great expression from them. I will not judge whether they should be smoking or not. I am not the one trying to portray a message(whatever that maybe).. you are and that's what matters.In my opinion photgraphs should conjure up emotion from the viewer and your shots(judging by the comments ) have done that. So keep up the excellent work you do!!

I would also like to add that I have relied on this site for tips and techniques used by the fine photographers on here to help me learn the craft. Not sure you are willing to share but I would like to see some explanation on your setups and postprocessing work on how you achieve such great photos.

Cole I didn't have a chance to vote on this challenge. Truly a great image!!! Your daughter again? Well done capturing the texture of the rope without blowing out her skin tone. Congrats!!

Great shot. Congrats on your first place showing. My wife and I have this ongoing hatred/envy for all of you in Iceland. You seem to hog all the ribbons and well deserved. It is quite often that we see outstanding photography from the Iceland crew. Keep up the beautiful work!

Great capture. I wish I was able to snap clear action shots like this one. I just said to my wife,just before voting was over that this one would win. I am surprised that it didn't. Congrats fellow first ribbon winner!!

This is hilarious!! As soon as I saw it I knew it was yours. You have some brave yahoos working with you. Everytime I see something like this it makes my skin crawl. I'm terrified of heights. Great idea! Good job!!

Wow nice B/W image. Clean,crisp and great exposure. Did you use a filter on this shot or was pp work. Just curious on how you created this great image.
