Without the head on the moon, it would have been perfect. With this head, it is completely wasted!

map1273, thanks for sharing your great picture.

I would be interesting to make a comment on where you took this picture.

Note: I did read that the pictures should be in black and white but why that?!

Why in black and white?
What on earth is so "beautiful" or fashionable to show pictures in black and white?
I will NEVER EVER understand the appeal many people have for black and white pictures!

We live in a world that is in color. Black and white pictures is like having to watch TV in black and white when you can see it in 1080p high-definition and color!!

In color, this picture would have been special. In black and white, it is dull or should I say "killed" by being in black and white!!

In color, it would have been great. In black and white, it is not great at all!!!

I cannot understand this kind of worship for black and white!! It is like if we would be asked to watch a movie in black and white instead of watching it in 1080p HD color!! That is how bad black and white is for pictures!! Black and white photography is for snobs and fashion divas, not for people who appreciate photography!!

Well, that is only my point of view, you are entitled to yours too.

And to put a black and white picture at 1st place is another indication of this crazy worship for black and white!

What makes a picture beautiful, special is the way it captures a particular moment. This picture is a good example.

Cute little girl enjoying being with her father. Simple yet beautiful.

Thanks for sharing this picture with us.

After using this new layout, I have discovered quite a few new and good features and I now do not prefer the older layout compared to this new one.

This new layout will be accepted by the majority over time.

One issue is to reach a page number that is far. You have to click several times. Imagine you want to check the posts from page 40, you will have to click many times to reach page 40.

Previously, you just put 40 in the page field, and one click and you were at page 40 easily and quickly.

I understand that you need to change the layout to add features and be able to evolve it further. Well, I do prefer the previous layout but I will try to get acquainted with this new layout.

One word: Awesome picture!! Thanks for sharing this beauty with us.

The only thing I am a little bit confused is the title where "top of the rock copysmall", I do not understand it!

In color, it would have been a much better picture. This black and white fancy, I do not have any attraction to it!
