Congratulations Zeuszen! wonderful image. I am left with only admiration of this shot. The tones, balance are right on. the stillness of the water that captures the reflection of the buildings and the soft muted expanse of sky all come together to give this shot that feeling of real Art. Thank You Zeuszen for sharing

An Honor. Thank you to all. The folks that have in the past and as we speak that have spent the time to comment are truly a big part of the success of this image. I take their guidence an suggestions to the heart of my photography, an effective learning tool. I realize the importants of detail, some of you did notice items that indeed took from the balance of the shot. A little help from Photoshop and most can be taken care of. Again, Thank You! Everyone.

I will be happy to share any knowledge on the "How to" for this shot. If you have questions please feel free to e-mail me

you have all ready faced comments about the focus and I am sure people have asked "how does this fit the challenge?" so what can be said constructive? I have come to the conclusion this is someones shoulder.what would have helped to make this a better shot would have been to have seen the top of the shoulder and maybe part of the neck. also a better profile ofthe tattoo. When shooting this close you can cast some strong shadows, I have managed to reduce that effect by using a sheet of white paper to defuse the flash. because the tattoo is solid this also may have worked as a B&W. I hope this helped some:) 4

the use of red here does send this to the nightmare side for me. but not sure what is happing in the shot. falling? running? abduction? I guess no matter, the child seems to be in peril. would have liked this more if focus was stronger overall.
