You should have entered this in Outdoor Photographer. I like yours better than the person whose verrrryy similar image took Hon. Mention in the latest issue's World Wonders '09 contest (not to take anything at all away from that photographer - it was also a stunning image!). I just like the way yours shows more detail in the patterns, and the ray of light doesn't overpower the image, which would keep the eye from seeing what the light is illuminating. Anyway, once again, wonderful, wonderful image! #8151071
