Man, this thing just WORKS. Monet would love ya!
What a brilliant pic for just sheer compositional strength.
Only thing I'd like a bit better would be a tiny, tiny bit less strong on the edges of the points of light that got dragged up at the top, but that's impossible in Basic. Something like a Gaussian blur at 1.2 at 40% opacity just in the area of foliage at the top. Through the rest of the pic, it just feels like texture. And very, very nice texture. |

| Oh, way to go, Deb! I love when someone gets surprised by a photo doing better than they thought. I would have thought this one would do great in this challenge tho. It looks like a fine art impressionist painting! Congratulations on 7th place! |

| The dynamic quality of the dog with distant figures on a diagonal works well with the camera motion and excellent B&W processing. Glad to see I wasn't alone in giving this a 10. Wonderful to have it in the top ten despite being very different from the images typically up there in DPC challenges. |

| I really liked the abstract story vision of this. The fact that you can you can identify the three figures thru the blur makes this interesting. And it looks great in black and white. Congrats on the Yellow and 7th place! |
