Holy cow! What timing! :shock:

There's lots of compositional issues to complain about, but I won't because it's technically as good as it gets, and the timing of the moment outweighs anything else.

Love the light, love the details, love the compo -- but I am not sure about the eye. I better leave this to the experts. :P

Robert, this is an incredible shot! You can't beat a fresh approach to a common subject, like this one.
Great eye to envision this photo!
