I believe the child with the balloon is the work of Banksy.

I have to agree with kpriest beautiful eye(s), that combined with the central compsition of the shot makes this a captivating image. I just wish it was cropped slightly tighter to avoid your left eye which seems to be in shade.

Thanks to all the people who took the time to vote and comment! As for how I got this shot, there was nothing that special on my part, most of it was due to the location. This shot hopefully gives you a better impression of how the shot was taken - //www.dpchallenge.com/image.php?IMAGE_ID=206831 - I was simply stood on the top of a hill above where the paragliders were taking off, giving me a view of the far side of the valley with the paragliders in the line of fire.

Not sure I can add any thing that hasn't already been said before, but hot damn that's a fantastic photo! I'd add you as a favorite photographer right now if you weren't already there!

Don't get me wrong 12th place is good, but I can't belive you didn't rank higher! The style of this shot just reminded me of some of the great photographers from the 60's, like Barry Lategan and David Bailey.

When I see a shot like this down at 61st (I thought it was top 10 for sure) makes me think I was very lucky to scrape 78th!
Nice to see you submitting again; it's been a while.

Funky photo, but I just wish there was more focus on the eyes. 7
