Very sobering and disturbing.

A quality if somewhat unsettling image.

Yeah, it is a sad sad world. If you don't win, it will be an even more sad world. This is a very strong image, I hope you get the blue ribbon. Good Luck.

I probably won't vote this whole challenge, so my vote might not count, but this is spectacularly good. [edit] I AM voting this whole challenge and still love this.

An incredible subject! :: love the photojournalistic feel this perspective gives, but leaves me curious for more detail :: great tone without too much contrast :: would have liked just a tad more DOF with a bit more sharpness -- 9 --

This would be better if either there was more focus, or if the focus was more in the center of the corps. IMO
