    Thanks All for the comments,
    Thanks to everyone who submitted and voted. There were some excellent danger shots in there.
    I realized that once this photo took shape, it was vary dark and disturbing. It's definitely the most moving photo I've ever created. It still moves me even though I've looked at it many times. I have to thank my wife for hitting the expression I was looking for and being my cooperative model.

    To me, the shot is about the destruction of the human spirit. That is a very dangerous place to be.

    Thanks again and looking forward to many great shots in the next challenge:D.

    Sorry I'm late but...
    big thumb.gif on the shot Chris.

    From the idea to the perfect execution (NO pun intended) of the processing. Very powerful and moving.
    If every keystroke was a shutter press I'd be a pro by now...

    Just wanted to say thanks again
    for all the comments. I just hope I didn't use up all my creative juices on this one.

    Good luck to the winner of #41. It's tough trying to narrow the field to just 10 picks, and I expect #42 to have many outstanding shotsclap.gif.

    Thanks again,
    Chris
