As I'm looking at this I'm thinking the rock is only a few feet off the ground, so it's not wow'ing me in that sense. The shot itself however is pretty cool, I like his blue top against the blue sky on top of the white rock, it all works nicely together.

Interesting take. Funny but the whites overexposed like that works in this pic
