Excellent capture, Michael!! I really like how you froze the water and the expression on the person's face is interesting. #737672Dorothy Neumann August 27, 2004

Thanks Isabel, Dorothy, Casey and Donna for your swell comments. It's amazing the response you get when shooting during that late in the day - the "magic hour" of daylight. #738759Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
