Description
"Pause for moment and taste the greatness of life,Cast your fate to the wind,
Feel the sun on your back.
As you stand barefoot in the sand,
Watch a cloud drift quietly by,
And give thanks for the thrill of being alive."
Big thanks goes to ^firelite-photo for featuring the photo. I'm floored by all the attention given to me this week

great image, lars.
expression of freedom and unrestraint, and a wonderful image to back it up.
the composition is awesome, and the small details like the shimmers in the upper right and your reflection on the tide just make this come together nicely.
very good

Nice though.

Beautiful Lars. Absolutely beautiful. Great reflection in the water and that sun shining through is marvelous, it hits the water in the air from the cloth and happiness has seem to freeze in time for you to reach up and grab a drop. I wish I could say more but its so breathtaking I'm utterly speechless. It's pictures like these that I will remember forever.

i think are you wearing the hat on your head? because that confused me, because the sarong and hat were stilll in the shot, i had to look 3 times before i realised that was your bod there and not your girls...it was the lack of boobies and the man ass that finally convinced me that it was you

i commented on the last piece and fav'd it but i think d/a ate my note to you 
i can't wait to see more of this series. the colours and silhouette in this piece and the last are incredible. it's like pure gold. and your girl has made for a sexxi model, creating lots of from your romantic holiday. well done

yeah it sucks :tear: I wish you'd resent that note or tell me what it was about. Thanks for your kind words about my girl. She hates photos of herself, so lately its been hard for me to get any, but I did get 3-400 of her in this vacation, so I might upload one or two more.

Its always a joy to see your pictures in my message box.
I really like how you created shadows to give the picture a VERY natural border. Your burning techniques have always baffled me. I also like the shine that is created on the back of the body. The head looks wierd. Not bad or anything, I just can't make out what is going on up there.
great pic!

This is absolutely beautiful. Even if what ever is covering the head bothers me a bit. But it can't take away from the fact that this is a superb shot.

Hey bud. I have stopped uploading. I had one that got 400 views and 2 comments. This is a great image. I would delete it and re-upload it when they fix all this. I am gonna fave this one. If you delete it I will just fave it again...

" This photo is crap in preview "
Bwahaha, oh how wrong you are. I already love this... I'll be back when the full-view's working. The colors are great.

This is a beauty.....Whatever that is over the head at first bothered me, but the more I look it just adds more mystery to it and is a great expressive element. Great choice on tone and vignetting...

I makes me sad that I can't seem to make the fullviews work, maybe it's a problem with DA or a problem with my computer... Either way, it's sad because I would love to see the details in this.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Fullview does work...it usually just takes DA a little while to make it happen...I constantly have problems with full view too, but if you come back in a day or so it usually works
Beautiful work btw! It's an amazing photo!

i love this capture... beautiful tonality and lighting lends itself very nicely to this piece. great composure with a touch of vignetting adds a great deal to an already wonderful work. very beautiful.
