This drew me right in. Love the mood, the b&w, the lighting. 4 stars for me.

Thank you Mark...very kind of you ..I shot the pic from the other side of a river..I thought it would be very intrusive to get to close

I'm in between 4 and 5 stars. I love the light coming from behind, the man standing with the stick caught in the action, the little monkey sitting on the stone, the birds blurred. I don't know what would make it a 5 star, but definitely this image is wonderful. Congratulations. (edit: going for 5 stars... i already rated 4 other images that aren't so strong)

the dusty light drew me in either. after reading what it is i left again only to come back once more to still write what i thought. i always think about what photography actually is, and however one may see it, it is a document and this moment as such is documented well.

Hi Richard...Thank you for your comments...I am also coming around to that way of thinking 😁
