I voted 5 during the competition but now when I look again, this really grows on me! With a little better light conditions, this would be a really nice one!!

Oh, thank you for the point to Death & Laundry, Steve! I think I may prefer it as well. I'd not seen it because I was not active here when it was originally being underestimated. And I can't award it the Order of the Thumb posthumously, because that would only confuse people, especially the actual Dead Guy. But I would if I could.

I prefer your "Death & Laundry" capture, although, this is outstanding as well. Congrats on receiving the "Order of the Thumb."

That's a super-duper photograph! This in spite of the cheesy title (the title won't help, BTW ... no actual sand = "DNMC" from the lumpen masses). Ah, well. 9. Nah, screw it ... 10. And the longer I look the more it appeals; the opposite of my experience of most ribbon winning images, which doesn't bode well for your chances, I'm afraid.

A cast of characters ΓΆ€“ some marvelously improbable ΓΆ€“ assembled and arranged here to perfection, and you managed all that, plus the actual photography, in just a fraction of a second! It's a good thing you don't get paid by the hour, or this would be worth about two cents. Fortunately you don't, and it isn't.

But speaking of small change, may I confer upon you my own two cents ... the little-regarded and delightfully divisive Order of the Thumb?

I know who this must be... another phenominal shot in this location. I swear you must choreograph these people AND the bird.

I find it odd that you can get that many people in one photograph without them being overlapped. Nice catch.
