Exceptionally appealing image. Well done with the freeze and the milling crowd.

Amazing the stairs just happened to somewhat clear out around your son for this to happen. The effect wouldn't be the same without it.

Which one's your son?

Just kidding. Cool that he wanted this and it's very effective. I love the tourist tumult around him and the way you have processed this so he's both a part of and separate from the scene. She's magnificently displayed, isn't she?

eta I am working on a laptop this morning which makes it awkward to see other comments before I post - but I do scroll down and read them after. Fun to see that we were all struck by the same thing - you definitely succeeded.

What Sarah, salmiakki said - that's exactly how I react to this wonderful shot.

Very cool. Love the processing.
My father managed to take a photo of this with only one or two people in it, or even without people.

Ooh, this is super. I love the movement of all the other tourists vs the stillness of your son. Great stuff

We had lacrosse in college. Great job getting the detail in the young man's face.
