Cool perspective and tones, that sun flare is a bit harsh on the eyes but it's a great shot. 7.

Beautiful duotone. Hotpasta would be proud.

The border doesn't work for me though, and the foreground lacks enough detail IMO.

I love the clouds and the light radiating from the sun.

Not an easy shot to take given the basic editing restrictions, though you've done well with this.

So much story in those hands. Starting with the horror, but continuing to show that with strength, people can overcome that to have a marriage and a long life. And the hands could belong to anyone, so it tells the story of all survivors, not just this particular one. On top of that, the shot is lit and composed well. Thanks for sharing this!
