No problem Nick

I did enter it simply because I like this shot and did think that it would meet the challenge better... but it really does not fit with the general DPC voting crowd :)

This is beautiful. The subtleness of the curve is captivating. Top notch.

IMHO the frame destroys the image for me, sorry. The dark frame overpowers the light contrast in the image, and the thick white frame grabs too much attention. With a different frame this would have been great.
