Iâm a secret Russian agent, oh wait itâs not a secret any more. No really, I was stuck for a decent title, I had âafter the downpourâ At first. Then I changed it to something I canât remember. Anyway I often do this, I will punch into Google translate A word that describes the photo, I really canât remember which word I typed in at this time. But I will go through all the different translations from Afrikaans to Swedish, to Hebrew, to Russian. I kind of like the word in Russian, so Russian it was! |
I see. What I meant is that in Russian, rasputitsa means specifically a road condition when (upaved) country roads become unpassable either after a heavy rain or spring snow melting |
I realised I got the meaning incorrect, I just really loved the word. And I was hoping no one would look it up :-) of course I forgot about you :-) |

| Wonderful work, my top pick, and my only 10. I really regret not having commented on this challenge as there were any number of excellent entries, but I was super busy last week. |

| Oh yes! Your son was absolutely correct. What would we do without our familial artistic 2nd opinions. This is so edgy and amazing! |

| It is a fine intrigue. (I wondered about "rasputitsa:" maybe a grand offspring of the infamous monk? I guess everything breaks down into muck eventually). |

| Visually it throws me off a little, but that is what you were going for. Interesting composition. |

I would love to see this in a portrait crop. The center is just magnificent, but there's just too much on the sides that distract from it.
Or perhaps lighter in the center and a graduated neutral density coming in from each of the sides?
Normally I assume that people have things just the way they want it. But this one just feels like it could be a stunning 10. But it's just feeling like a 7 now. Tantalizingly close to truly incredible. |

| I really like this picture. Great idea to flip it, very creative. I keep thinking whether I personally would have preferred it more centralized - would like to see it to decide :-) |
