 I liked this shot but i didn't like the quote i put with it. I would rather this image didn't have it. I did make a postcard version i would rather show



also screwed up and left the title "wonder" which is from a variation of the quote i had submitted earlier but forgot to change it to "Reflect" when i resubmitted.

voted 8 orginally, this image is just great! Awesome duality and without the reflections of a sea or ocean would give.

I agree with your assessment - this image is outstanding but I think it is much stronger by itself or as a postcard. One of my top images in the challenge.

Beautiful sky and clouds, and the contrast between the sky and sand is nice. The slogan works nice here!

Wow - great shot. The colours look somewhat unreal, but maybe that was intentional?

Beautiful! Love the way "Reflect" overlaps the image. The image itself is gorgeous.

Lovely image, beautifully composed and presented. I wish the text had more relevance to the image, though.

Cool shot, the font is a little hard to read though.

the image contradicts the phrase....the image is of a vast desert, but the sentiment is to look inside yourself...

Beautiful photo, beautiful way you added text too

Nice fonts and placement... and good picture.

Gorgeous photo - would be a 10 from me. But the words don't really match. I'd expect something about natural wonders. Still, a 9 in case I'm just not deep enough. :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/04/2007 09:15:29 PM
but if I reflect, how can I see something deep inside myself?
 09/04/2007 05:26:03 PM
Wow...this is simply beautiful on every level.
