    Boy, if anyone ever nailed a shot, you certainly did with this one, Lew.

    Nice work.

    Often I open a post based on what I think the image will be, based on what the caption is. Often I am right. This one blew me away--it was far better and ever so much more provocative than anything I could have imagined. I found myself going back for a second and a third look.

    Brilliant and ever so simple! BRAVO!

    Thanks all.
    This was a quick grab with the ever-brilliant, better-lens-than-I-am-photographer 70-200.
