A favorite of mine. Love the contrast within the frame, as well as, with the challenge. Well done. 10

great catch, and as always, that noisy tactile texture is awesome. (not voting)

The title helps the image a lot. Or at least helps me. It reminded me of a motto that I saw a lot in Switzerland "festina lente" = make haste slowly. Probably because the tents give the feeling of a slow and clumsy movement.

Just realized that I am never surprised where my images get in the final counting of marks, but I am truly stunned by the lack of response to this spectacular image during the voting. It's as close to what one could call a "flawless" image from a lot of points of view.
The discrepancy between the average marks given by commentators and participants is staggering.
Perhaps the true mark of a great image (piece of art) is not being recognized as such immediately.
Does the majority appreciate mostly the familiar, the nonthreatening, the technically solid work? A question as old as the world.
I had 5 images on my first page and none was among the 10 most admired pictures.

Love that you got a 4.25 and not a 2.25. You must have been shocked. BTW, how is this NOT a self-portrait? In fact, give me a ring the next time you go to the moon to shoot yourself back on Earth, I'd love to join you!
