So much beauty in such a stormy picture. Love the color and tone. Your monoku inspires one to be stable in turbulent times.

I see this as a conflict between two forces, one (building) good...the other (water) evil! Congratulations, Andrea....a deserved winner it is!! // paul

Ooooh very intense. Wasn't expecting that. Isn't it odd how one can see beauty, the other despair, and even still (with yours) hatred, with the same shot? I had the option of taking a funnier route with this photo, but ended up with what I wrote ... still undecided of which way I would have rather gone!
