No matter how much I have grown as an amateur photographer over the past 3 years (and I think I have), this shot from August 2007 remains my most popular on Flickr: over 1500 views and 189 faves (add another 1100 views and 102 faves for the black and white version). Straight from a point-and-shoot 4 MPx camera, no post-processing, not even cropping.
I always thought it had (de)motivational poster potential as well, and finally I hit on a text that I think works pretty well - including the meme "You're doing it wrong".

Two comments:
1. It's better to be lucky than good (although you are good, too)
2. It's a great poster. I love demotivational posters.
3. You're doing it right.
Okay, that was three comments.
Really, it's your eye that sets you apart. You see things I never would. That's why you make successful images, and this is merely one example.

How can I follow Andy's 'three for the price of one' comment?
Just by corroborating; yes, you are indeed 'doing it right'
Now - what about the print run of this postcard?

Impressive mood. Great lines, geometric elements. I think the 3 men are good spotted. The fog and the light are matching well with the strong geometry.
Do you remember?
To come to an essential point: The cameras are only tools. You have to handle them!!!!
Yes, you can!
Press the shutter, please some more times. Happy weekend!

Haha!! Hit the nail on the head here! Love it...you should definitely look into distribution of this gem.
The shot alone (without the poster) is awesome - love the depth, emotion and atmosphere. Fave!!!

This was one of my first ever faves. Looking at it again, I have no cause to regret that. Love the poster idea. Set it loose on the world.
And, yes, this image still makes me think of Magritte.
