A very effective image for putting mankind in perspective. The tiny skier with the towering mountains on each side tells such a powerful story.

The sense of scale with the human in the frame is really cool. Nicely seen and captured.

Great perspective and sense of scale, not to mention the feeling of isolation. Looks damn cold, too. The image works very well.

Hey Tom,
Man it looks lonely at the Top !
I agree with the perspective comments already made. I will also add that the POV presented in this image of looking up the mountain from behind the solitary hiker gives the viewer a real feel for the sense of struggle and determination that is apart of the experience in reaching the top.
Well done . . .
