David,
well conceived and captured (light and composition, plus clarity).
This is not a criticism; merely a question or observation.
I notice that there is something a touch surreal, or perhaps
painterly is a better word. my photos don't have this same type of
look (and yours don't always, either). I'm not explaining well, but
do you see what I'm talking about? Did you do anything a little
'extra' in software to bring out a more 'still life' look to the
image?

Though I didnt take the photo, I think I see the "effect".
Could it be the fact there is hard sunlight, and harsher shadows than
one would expect on a "stormy" day??
I sometimes get this effect in a storm shot, when the storm hasnt
quite covered the sun, and it is quite effective, and usually leaves
a "surreal" look to the shot.
Just the other day I was standing in bright sunlight, and getting
rained on at the same time, and wishing I had my camera in my hand so
I could shoot the scene.

Don't confuse fame with success. Paris Hilton is one; Helen Keller is
the other
