Very nice photo,  too bad they don't show the whole series.  I was a little overwhelmed by your website as well.

As well as some entries that make you wonder what the hell the judges were thinking..... Kfir Bolotin's Chamonix piece in Extreme Exploration as one example.

I guess it shouldn't be a surprise though based on some of the crap PDN picks for its photo annuals
