The author could almost have called this "walk of fire" and it would have worked well. The sky is very interesting and the cloud formation is intriguing. It meets the expectations of fitness and could well be a motivational poster with many meanings available for fitness. A good effort nicely concieved.

Brings to mind that old song 'Never Smile at a crocodile . ."

I swear that thing is smirking - good shot though.

Almost perfect. It's over sharpened (halos around the rocks and mermaid), it jumps out at you. However, when printed you wouldn't be able to tell, so I won't mark it down for that. The overall impact of this image is stellar and would be a sure fire favorite at a tourist shop. The drop shadow font is perfect and handled very well - very precise and purposeful. Overall color and tone plus the dramatic sky make this an outstanding entry.
