    Like it? Are you kidding, that shot is beautiful.

    Fantastic. I gotta believe that will sell.

    Very nice work IMHO.

    I am jealous as ussual.

    Love it. Made me go "wow". A very striking, memorable image. And I'm getting a little tired of this handheld nonsense, mister. Didn't they teach you to use a tripod back in the photography store? Imagine that, a beautiful panaorama that's handheld, and I can't tell where you stiched it (is that shadow on the water real?) I love your courage on the color.

    Like the shot a lot, not loving the color choice.

    Maybe I am a wacko, but I like the blue one better. It is striking and unique. It grabs my attention.

    I can see why you are ambivalent about that picture. I think it is a scene out of a child's nightmare and is very frightening. I think that the sky, in particular, lends to my natural tendency to recoil from the picture. At the same time, I think it is one of the better pictures I have seen. Anything that invokes such strong feelings, I think is very good. g
    After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.
