Fantastic shot author...well done

agreed! Good luck!!

The best shot in this contest in my opinion as it really "tells a story", the composition is creative, the swimming girl is very expressive, the swimming pool is huge, the final result is remarkable!

Very nice work. GL author !

Very clever! GL!

Sweet, I love that she looks like she is holding her breath!

Brilliant..well done!

Great idea and well executed.

Awesome!!!!!! The hair floating up was a great touch. Well thought out.

That is very cool, well done!

Very cool!

I like this! GL!

I know how you feel about the 300mm... it's great for landscapes but some stuff just ever turns out clear! I love this shot though even if it is as you described it

Nice 1! GL!

I was about to take this funny: Colgate Clock - time to brush your teeth!
but after reading your comments this picture has a drama behind it.
Not too much respect for the 3rd biggest clock on earth.

Yay! Congrats

congrats!

Congrats my friend!

Are the 8, 6 and 2 burned out?

amazing shot author!

Wow! I love the reflection on the snow and ice. The different colors working together make this number one for me. Good luck!

Did you change the picture once? This is obviously outside. The high res is quite stunning. GL!

Beautiful, where is this?

Very nice night photography = )

woah! you got a photo of a bald eagle! thats an amazing opportunity!

Wonderful, such clarity, well done

I had the same issue not long ago but went out too late and so not enough cars. Good effort though author, GL!

Looks like a very romantic place...

I don't think it matters how often or how little you see them they are so amazing and impressive especially in flight; they take your breath away!

You should come to BC, Canada during salmon spawning season .. there are hundreds of them! But there is nothing like the first shot of something as impressive as these incredible birds!. It is truly a special image!

beautiful, but is is outside?

We have a pair of bald eagles that live near us, and I've seen them 100 times. But it doesn't matter. Every time I see them my heart starts beating a little faster. They are pretty cool!

Lovely image! Congratulations!

Congratulations ... this is a stunning photo!

great shot !

Congrats for your second place, great shot!

I love the detail, especially in the droplet.

great concept

I don't even understand what creature this is but it's really remarkable!!!

There shuld hav been more traffic

Nice job, the refracted image in the droplet is really sharp.

OMG, he had all his 4 eyes on you. I wonder how does his brain compound the image.

He was dead, lol. You should've said: I paid him tons of pollen for this shot

The detail is just great, the fangs are an amasing colour. You can almost make out the camera in the eyes too. I wouldn't get that close unless it was a variety I knew for sure could 'jump'

Really great shot, how on earth did you get it to pose for a studio shot...

beautiful

wow!

Really nice shot.... fantastic detail.

AAAAA run

Awwwww
