I am not surprised this came in numero uno. It's such an inspired shot. I feel the same way about your World Revolves Around Us shot. Damn that beautiful fisheye!

Many conga rats for you!

Thanks everyone! I think this is the most comments I've ever received!

I feel like a schmuck, because I uploaded the wrong image. This one works, sure, but the other one had the fixed horizon :p

Egads!

Ah well!

Oh, and yes, this was taken in the great hall on Ellis Island. :)

Ah, I have dreams of this nature! More regarding politics than personal life, but either way this photo really resonates with me. Aside from any statement or challenge, this is hands down a beautiful photograph. Congratulations on making such a lovely photo.

If I were to offer any advice for improvement (which is really unnecessary and possibly impossible! heh) I would rethink the faded corners (what's the name of that technique? heh). I think it only adds to this photo as it's for a Dream challenge.

I'm so very in love with this shot :) It really is beautifully done. Congrats!

Maybe I could give one suggestion, but it's so minor. It'd be cool if there were more sky. But hey, if there WERE more sky I might say nix the sky ahaha. I'm really reaching for any kind of criticism. It's all love. Great shot :)

Thanks for the comments everyone! I was not expecting any type of good result with this photo. Very last minute, who cares kind of entry. But I appreciate the comments and votes. Thank you!

Thank you for the comments everyone! I didn't really go out with the intention of taking photos for this challenge. This just happened to be in my camera after getting back from the NYC GTG on 4/17.

But I must say that to anyone who thinks the statue takes precedent and takes away from the "PEOPLE" challenge, just remember that statues were people too!
