This is a stunning image, Ahmed. The silouhette of the fishermen really stands out against the midtones of the image. Beautiful comp, too! Congratulations. #1246547

Somehow I feel like I'm having some sort of religious experience when I view this image. The long shadow of the man with his staff, coupled with the silhouette where the staff has a sunburst at its end...

Wow! Absolutely amazing. #8441863
