A lot of impact here, John...a great action silhouette capture, very effective in B&W. Sure, try the another crop to see if you like it better...but this one is nice. MFC

Ok, now that I've revisited your image... I have to agree that Ann's suggestion of a different crop is one excellent suggestion. By cropping the image at a horizontal plane that crops out the tops of the trees altogther, it makes the image a much more "visually clean" image. Great thinking Ann! I noticed this when I opened the image, then scrolled the page so that the tree tops were out of view. Great observation Ann! Mark J

Wow! What an amazing image. I love the silhouette against the water behind the skier. I'd be interested to see another crop of this, not to replace this one which is great, but to see how it would look with just the skier and the water behind him. I love it as it is and was just speculating what another crop would look like. Ann C

VERY nice shot! I especialy like the curved lines created by the water at the bottom right of the wave. If it were my image, I might have attempted to "clone out" the trees at the top of the image... but I'm not sure how one could do that without disturbing the water droplets at the top. Either way, you have a wonderful capture here. Mark J
