No Surprise here! Congratulations on another spectacular shot. What is surprising is that there were 4's in the voting. But I guess it didn't matter. Nice work!

I really like this. The sky is cool in this one. The only suggestion I have is that if you can try and avoid pointing your camera upwards so as not to get the distortion in the bridge and buildings.They look like they are leaning.Try and get a higher vantage point or raise your tripod and level out your camera. I have to remember to do that myself.Other than that nice capture!

I like the negative space. This is great! what lens did you use? You might want to boost saturation next time. The letters seem a little grey. Nice job not blowing out the whites.

Hey Toy

I have been admiring your work since I have joined this site. You certainly have perfected the art of lighting your models and capturing great expression from them. I will not judge whether they should be smoking or not. I am not the one trying to portray a message(whatever that maybe).. you are and that's what matters.In my opinion photgraphs should conjure up emotion from the viewer and your shots(judging by the comments ) have done that. So keep up the excellent work you do!!

I would also like to add that I have relied on this site for tips and techniques used by the fine photographers on here to help me learn the craft. Not sure you are willing to share but I would like to see some explanation on your setups and postprocessing work on how you achieve such great photos.

Cole I didn't have a chance to vote on this challenge. Truly a great image!!! Your daughter again? Well done capturing the texture of the rope without blowing out her skin tone. Congrats!!

Great shot. Congrats on your first place showing. My wife and I have this ongoing hatred/envy for all of you in Iceland. You seem to hog all the ribbons and well deserved. It is quite often that we see outstanding photography from the Iceland crew. Keep up the beautiful work!

Great capture. I wish I was able to snap clear action shots like this one. I just said to my wife,just before voting was over that this one would win. I am surprised that it didn't. Congrats fellow first ribbon winner!!
