Congrats Paul!! LOVE this one. Skinny dipping is totally fun too. :) I like that this looks to be taken a night, instead of in the daytime.

That's a neat shot. Great idea.

What hits me above all else in this image is the almost mechanical quality her walk seems to have, like she's programmed to go on like this forever, an image that leaves you wondering why and that's always nice. The washy processing is fitting for the scene, altogether very nice. 8

Fantastic piece of art, very surreal and yet so real.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I think you were onto something with this image. Love the colors, lighting and tones. Only thing I don't like is the somewhat "boring" stance of the model. Maybe if there was more action, or something a little more dynamic? Still, I really liked this.

Wow, at first I thought this was a cloud formation. Very interesting image.
