This is lovely and very creative. Looks like a painting. Everything is running together and out of focus...just like the morning! Back to bump you up to 8. Well done.

This shot is tremendous. Kind of a documentary eh? So clean - love the color tones you chose...I even love your attire! Looks like a yucky ritual but one good thing comes of it...an 8 from me!

I think this image should have scored higher. It's such a lovely moment that perfectly meets the challenge. Love the DOF and the softness and the contrasting dark and light. Very nicely done.

Totally cool sky as usual. Congratulations on yet another ribbon! You certainly have a rainbow of them on your profile - all well deserved! I think you Icelanders should have your own website instead of competing with us mere mortals here at DPC! : ) Just kidding...I'm happy to collect the occassional morsel you miss.

Originally posted by landcamera: I was surprised this one didn't do better; I was expecting at least a top 10 finish if not a ribbon. Fantastic idea, your representation of the sacrifice Christ made was summed up perfectly in your title, as was the use of a red background symbolizing the blood of Christ. Thanks for sharing your faith.

I must say I completely agree with landcamera. I felt the tone of the shot and the title made it very clear that this was not a sick joke. I am utterly flabbergasted at the 26 votes of 3 and under! I'm afraid many voters (as usual) were unable to separate their feelings on the subject from rating the merits of the pic. For shame! This should have finished WAAAAAAAAY higher.

Oh yeah.....and your SEXY!
