Good visual tension!

Nice work author! best of luck!

Great shot, but I feel it would be a more powerful image if you cropped quite a bit off the sides.

Clever idea!

DOF is well done, good job

Very readable! How many times did you have to practice it?

well done

Hahahah, that was about the 9th try.

Lovely artistic way to show the name!

I like how the red hydrant pops off the subdued background.

I like what athousandwords said and the sand around it. = )

Great shot, maybe crop the building out to make it more abstract. I love the trees!

Thanks!

Great shot! I love it. Have you tried to crop out the building? Perhaps it would give more the idea of a hydrant in a desterted place. Maybe it would look even more unusual.

I love it..

ooops, sorry WYSIWIG, I only now see that I repeated what you said... well, maybe we're right?...

I kind of like the building there... it adds to the surrealist nature of it.

Nice contrast between the grayer background shapes against the fire hydrant! Well done author!

cool shot author...i see hydrant and i see the sand...bust is the hydrant have the water......sorry for my joke author....this is fabulous capture...sl

Congrats for your second place!
