I will always think of the outstanding Grand Prize photo by Jordi whenever I look at a pool edge and this photo is my interpretation of that winning photograph
The fantastic photography on this site encourages me to keep on looking for unique ideas to share with everyone on BetterPhoto
I am inspired by so many photographers on this site and I am sorry that I can’t name you individually in the allocated space.......this is the last of this series and I wanted to say “thank you ALL very much”

I love it!!! I knew right away from the thumbnail which fabulous photographer inspired this one!! Truly an OUTSTANDING shot and a wonderful tribute, Donna! #227263Carol Brill March 21, 2005
Donna, I couldn't agree with you more about the inspiration received from other photographers on this site...many, many times in the past months I've tried a new technique or captured a scene I wouldn't have thought to look at, all because someone here has shared their vision with all of us! Marvelous sentiment and a well-deserved tribute! #1194002Stanley J. Contrades March 21, 2005
I'm with Dan, and there was no doubt which photographer inspired this shot! Am sure we all take a little something from the photographers on this site and become better for it! Well done, Donna, and a wonderful tribute to a fabulous person as well!Danilo Piccioni March 21, 2005

Hi Rob - thank you so much, it took me a while to accept that this had been chosen because it is a direct copy of Jordi's winning image (as per my title.....) but now I have gotten over my reluctance about this being chosen and I am thankful that you took the time to pass on your belated congrats.Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
