Oh, is this that WWII memorial in Virginia? Nice shot of the splash. Such a touching but frightening momument, no?

Compelling photo, but it doesn't really telegraph "alone" to me.

Is that a statue? How cool if it is. Where is it? That's a fountain beside him?
If I was in that situation, I might be praying I was alone. You have the hunted and the hunter(the fountain looks like someone is shooting). So it technically doesn't fit the challenge. I like it, so no points lost because of that.

Wow, a powerful image. Great light usage, great focus, clarity is wonderful. I'm not sure I get a solitary or lonely feeling from the image, more of a fear & danger, high stress feeling. There is the alone aspect however, so I think it fits the challenge very well. Excellent job. 8

The splash really adds to this.
