this was my pick to win! Really wonderful take..

Great Shot! I like the color used and the image itself.

I think the shot is very powerful.

I see the paradise on the state of "normal" younger and healthier people (i.e. me or most of the voters :), I feel her aching/bended body as being tortured in...
