Amazing almost surreal, love the pose and colours, I would be bowled over to get a shot like that.

Perfect timing on the head throw. Those are so, so difficult. Being off sun angle left unpleasant shadows on the bill pouch and the top of the head. BKGR is of course killer.

with love, artie

Amazing colours. Perfect timing. Lovely detail and a great BG. Well done Tim.

Tim - Ditto what other's have said. I would have been floored to get an image like this. This is an absolutely stunning image to me.

Here is what I love about this:
1) Beautiful composition - I love the amount of the rock you included and the amount of space you gave at the top above the bill
2) The colors are striking
3) The amazing timing of the shot and
4) the obvious preparation you put into this - right place, right time, and great weather conditions (not too much wind so that the water in the BG is relatively smooth and not too choppy).

Thank you for sharing.
