Great shot elbambino. The colour treatment works well too.

Such a beautifully emotive shot, got me straight away!

Excellent!

WOW, you nailed it!!!

Sensational,evocative,warm and human.

Superb !

I love it. I am afraid I have no original words to add, other than to reflect on those of Ange and hugo. You certainly nailed it! I was looking for a stronger word than ‘nailed’ but when I came up with ‘screwed’ I decided it was better left as ‘nailed’.

Outstanding image

Wonderful shot …..

Great… I love it.
