wow. I am blown away.

I have studied chinese calligraphy to a fairly high level and I believe I can say quite competently that his calligraphy is excellent. I have spent hundreds of hours writing and practicing with a brush and with my hand I cannot write nearly as well as he does.

The rest of the pic though is just mindblowing.

Wow.

stunned at the low placement of this shot. I would have figured this for a DPC style shot...

I only gave it a 9 myself....

not that familiar with the script of zoolander, but it makes better sense now.

Your story is touching and sad, but your picture tells us little of what is going on behind the scenes.

Undoubtedly this holds tremendous personal value for you.

Liberty State Pk & NY Skyline

this is definitely one to hang on to and certainly has a level of emotional impact in what it shows. I voted it 4 as a photo (snapshot) and pushed it up 1 for the 'hidden gem' value. I am not american, so the emotional impact is much less for me than the historical import for me.
