A really satisfying shot Mike, even though I'm not sure exactly what all the people are watching. Love your b&w conversion and those great silhouettes.

A strange one for you, not sure what it is about but it has an unusual interesting effect, interstellar like, celestial like, use of light is very good

I agree with PJW Miller. Where's Richard Dreyfuss when you need him?

A great photgraph Mike ! Nice contrasts and it makes me think of a brain, working hard ! :-)
Of course, this setting is much more beautiful and poetic than my former idea... :-))

Hi Mike,
Great title for a great image.
Cool silhouettes and impressive background.
The scene is just fair share of lyricism. A little more sugar would be horrendous.
Excellent balance my friend ;o)

Don't know why the hell I missed this on the 18th, and I'm sorry I did! Beautiful shot, even without the effects. Leading up the stairs to the group in the distance - great perspective.
