The way that you captured this suspended hang glider in the middle of this expansive vastness is perfect. The unseen horizon is just the icing on the cake.

Great Shot!

BjørnS says:

I think the big, black area in the upper right of the defender is a problem. The challenger is beautiful, even though I might have wanted the horizon a bit clearer.

Alexey Tolchinsky says:

very nice, you could have selected other images from the pool. I just like the defender's image better. It has more depth and sense of perspective. Leading lines there take me to the subject and imply motion. Here I don't see motion. Subject froze in the air, which is also nice - peaceful and calm. Between these 2 I'd vote for the defender's

Mostly Sunny Sky says:

Very interesting play on textures between the sky and the sea. There is not much sense of depth, though. I don't feel drawn to this picture as this kind of landscape should.

The defenders photo is so vibrant with mood, detail and quality composition. The gold colour adds so much. Your photo is great but:

Both pictures sail away, in different mediums. This picture feels more meditative. That's what I like about it. I also like the misty center. oneof100#3

Both are great but I'm choosing this one reason really. The chanllegers shot looks like it was much more difficult to be in the right place at the right time.
