 Ben enters what HE likes, and does not worry about what the mass appeal machine thinks about it. This is something that appeals to ME. Not a thing like any shots Ben has done, though this following shot of his caught my eye and I learned he used to compete in triathlons. So perhaps it is still a tribute to him in a way.


I am going to get soooooo creamed! It should crash and burn gloriously. Maybe I'll nail that love it or hate it entry I've been trying for.

Post-challenge notes:
A huge spike in the 5's. Damn. I was hoping this could be my "love it or hate it" entry. It's really hard to get a voting breakdown that has a valley in the 5's.

Probably would do decently in a challenge with a more appropriate theme.

Like the title, the shadows, and the trees framing the shot. So many great photos in this challenge.

Well, I like it. I like the framing, the light and shadows, the colors, the movement, and the hint of a story.

Amen to that. Good natural framing here -- the confining trees and layers of shadows.
