Hi Edward
something interesting in your photo ... the strenght specially that you captured well with all those muscles : )
I think a bit of sharpness and luminosity could make it even better.
I made a quick ws.
Best regards
Fred

oh my...for both wrong and right reasons, i am fascinated by this shot. they look like a statue, and that one right hand hanging there is just perfect. i think it would be even more beautiful in black and white, giving more focus on the men and less on the background.

Hello, Edward,
A belated welcome to Trekearth. This is an outstanding action photo! Wonderful light and contrast, good POV, excellent composition and cropping and great, clear color. The WS added just a touch of detail, but this is a superb shot to begin with. VERY well done! Many thanks and kind regards,
Shelly
