Bill, I really like this. It has a ghostly, mysterious yet serene feel. Very nice!

Hey Bill, when I saw the thumbnail I thought, "hmmm, I don't know...". But when I clicked and opened it up, I got a nice big smile on my face! Very well done, lovely atmosphere, excellent. :smile:

great solitary feeling! That's how this guy must have felt that misty morning.

Awesome image. Love the sense of determination that he's out in any kind of weather. It may be an illusion, but it feels like there is a CW tilt to this. But it might just be the ripples...
