Bittersweet or maybe I'm just crazy, but that's what I see. Great image. Dex

Thanks Dex.
Nice to know someone "got it" and I appreciate the fav.
A lot would change around these parts if we all had time to sit and think of the story behind a picture and perhaps put one's self into the scene, imagining what it would be like to have been standing there when the shutter was clicked. Images are deeper than a 3 second glance. |

A photo I can get involved with on a far deeper level than anything on the front page. Missed it during voting, unfortunately.
Also, as unfortunate, is the fact that while it shows shallow DOF on a relative scale, it doesn't hit you over the head with it. Although I think you knew that. |

| I like this a lot... It speaks volumes to me... kinda makes me wonder if it was a good day for boogie-boarding :) |

| Great silhoette. I like how the light has given this almost a metallic feel too. |

Perfect DOF and the silhouette looks great.
I like the reflection on the board also. |
