Break. . .

Cosmin, the Malock and Malboro motif is priceless.

Only negative aspect of this from what I can tell is that it didn't come out of my camera ;0 Wonderful work.

Thanks

for all your comments. And about publishing (Glen's question) in about one week or two it will be out from printing machine my first book "Transit". But, ssst, here nobody knows nothing about, yet.

Just

The only

... thing that could be 'improved' here would be the submission size: when auto-downsampled from 620 to 600 it doesn't look as crisp as it should. See http://contaxg.com/document.php?id=4649.

Bravo !

I can feel the freeze, the wet and the mood of this moment. I can touch the smoke. Maybe the shot could be improved by cutting the upper dark part wich has less detail and showing more of the road.

Wonderful!

Not only superb photographic technique, the image truly tells a story. Of your photos, this is second only to "The Up-Hill Church" as my favorite. Nice work indeed, Cosmin. --Rick

A Thousand Words...
