So Beautiful it seems surreal,.....Outstanding capture Gene !

Hi Gene,

 

congrats on your 'editor's pick'! This photo is indeed very well shot. Not only does it have a pleasing composition, very good lighting and great colors, it suggests several stories that could apply. Very well done. Kind regards, Vincent

So....Finally discovered the artist and passionate photographer with this ubiquitous and technically flawless photograph. One of the best I've seen in a looooong time of a much photographed subjedt. But yours, in a totally separate and lofty level. Bravo. DG
