-The Look-

I had to hit reverse gear and come back to see this again. Flipping through these photos (far too many dull uninspired work in this challenge), one is apt to miss the subtle images. Yours has a certain something - yet remains perfectly ordinary. The headdress, the look, the door sign... all says something; lines in a story which the view can complete. 8.

Why so low? I simply hate images of cameras. So introspective really. But that's my personal hangup. I voted this a 3 and stick by it. Apart from the dislike of cameras as subject matter, I think the overall image requires too much work from the viewer to be interesting. Well you did ask why? :)

The Open Road, chapter 2 (Wind in the Willows) by Kenneth Grahame

Ducks' Ditty

All along the backwater,
Through the rushes tall,
Ducks are a-dabbling,
Up tails all!

Ducks' tails, drakes' tails,
Yellow feet a-quiver,
Yellow bills all out of sight
Busy in the river!

Slushy green undergrowth
Where the roach swim—
Here we keep our larder,
Cool and full and dim.

Everyone for what he likes!
We like to be
Heads down, tails up,
Dabbling free!

High in the blue above
Swifts whirl and call—
We are down a-dabbling
Up tails all!

Your photo reminds me of that chapter.

I thought your photo was worth a good deal more than this result. Just came back to enjoy.... nice work.

Decently handmade by the looks of it. I like the composition too (except for the people in the background - but then again, I am a bit of a purist).

Stunning set of pics, Jay. Sorry Getty/AP jumped in to steal thunder. But such is life. You were there first and with the same quality. Now, what's next? Better up the ante. How about photographer goes swimming with wild aquatic tigers.... use the rubberized Nikon for that one ;-)
