What a story - amazing, and to think you had one go at it, shows your talent.
When I look at this photo, I think to myself, how can anyone give this less than a 10, but you got them, as hard as it is to believe that this deserves anything less. It would be astonishing indeed to ever see anything on DPC get at least a 9 average!

The light and the splashes puts this image in the category of the divine shots. Technically you did a great job with the foreground and background light while the composition was already there just waiting for you to shoot your camera. The natural triangular frame does a great job pushing our attention to the main scene and subtracting any distracting element that could weak the image. The word that I usually use to describe pictures like this, is "perfect". Congrats for this stunning image. |

This is a beautiful shot, having seen it I would certainly have voted a 9 or a 10... I don't quite see the urban landscape but that's not really what counts. A beatiful photo in every respect and a well worthy second place! Well done! |

Congratulations on a red ribbon!
Edit: I just noticed this is your first ribbon! Even more congratulations then!! But I'm sure ribbons will be gracing your profile page in multiples before long!

08/17/2007 04:25:31 PM |
I really have a dilemma with this as it really doesn't technically fit the description of rural. A truly awesome composition and capture and a wonderful scene. I'm giving it a 6 because of it, though in a Free Study I'd have gone higher. The 6 is strictly on the shot's merits but IMNSHO, DNMC.
Upon reflection, and being honest, it's no less rural than my entry, and in the spirit of fair play, you talented b*stard, I'm bumping this to an 8. |
