LesF

This gets my award Chris for the deep almost 3D mono tones and the half veiled face which leaves me wanting to keep looking at it in case the cloud passes.
I'm also a fan of the silky water effect so it's a complete landscape image for me.
John

The mono tones are excellent and the cloud really adds to the sense of mystery.
