Thank you all so much :) I did not expect to get the blue ribbon since i lost my score down by 0.3 on the last day. So this was a very happy surprise... Special thx to Inese Steinberga for a great pose and holding the balance&zen trough out all the photo shoot ;)

Congrats on the blue. It's a beautiful image. I'm surprised that it's Iceland because the feeling is oriental.

Congrats on your ribbon. I think it's more Yoga than Zen, but it's terrific anyway.

One of my top picks; love the crisp sillouette.

Highly commercial, but beautiful, despite the unnatural sharpening. I don't see Zen in this image, but many will. Good luck with the vote.

blue

as much as i'd like to give this shot a ten, i think the sky is too dramatic for this to be a completely "silent" shot. added to my faves though.

The border detracts from an otherwise strong image. Dramatic colors and silhouette are effective.
