You gotz robbed. Great image. I'm shocked by the top placers as they have nearly a zero interest factor for me as opposed to this (2nd Place image is quite good). Cheers.

It's strikingly beautiful, but also has great substance. The unusual composition with the centered horizon bisecting the two heads reinforces the feeling that this is more than a pretty stock picture, and will reward a bit of study and thought.

Really like the deep depth of field so you can see the detail up front with the field behind.

a National Geographic image if I ever saw one - lovely colors and composition - that is the perfect perspective - down at their level, seeing what they see....
