Took this on a walk near Fenerbahce, adjusted the levels in Photoshop. Couldn't make my mind up between this and an antique version.

Thanks to all who commented on this photograph, It was a candid capture, which I felt fitted the challenge perfectly. Still never can tell.

Fan of Sublime?
You might try rotating to the left, it feels like its tipping over!

Excelllent. (with 3 L\\\'s) Would have given an almost unheard of 4th L, but not sure about that blue rim or whatever coming from the top right. What can you do though? I am guessing this wasn\\\'t a staged set. Ok...four L's. Excellllent.

Hee hee, that's how I feel at work right now. It's hot so all I want to do is nap. Great subject!

More ligth on the face of sitting men, and this could be my favorite. Nice shoot.

This is one of my favorite shots in this challenge. I think it will likely get overlooked. It is a very busy shot, which normally I find distracting, but here I like the contrasts. The ages and skin of the men, the boats and the water. I cant figure out what the curved line is at the top right, but it looks like the edge of the earth. The water bottle almost emptied, the man sleeping, the other shirt off. I think this is the kind of shot that would be in national geographic representing life in ? (the Mediterranean perhaps). As far as criticisms go-- the dark skinned man could have slightly more light while the big jug could have slightly less. None the less my choice for 1st place. You have a great shot and captured something that is very human and 'summer'. Excellent shot.

Top R/H corner spoils it. Otherwise would have been great.

Very nice mood. I found the non-level horizontal and the roof? at the top a distracting. Otherwise a 9 or 10.

A+ for making living look really easy. That boat tarp also makes the world look so small - seems like you can make a trip around it in a day.
