At first I thought image was great and then when I saw what the original image was that it came from, then I realized this picture was flat out amazing. Very sharp image and great work after the shot. |

this is an amazing shot. the crop really adds something to it. i am an artist & i was wondering if i could have your permission to paint this someday? i was also wondering what kind of software you used to do your editing?
you can write to me at pookey83@hotmail.com

Alain -
It has all been said by others.. but just had to say that the image is an inspiration to all others to persevere at the "taking" stage and also in the Edit stage in PS'. A truly wonderful shot, captivating and well deserved praise.
thanks for sharing and congratulations.
