    Nice use of contrast, or the focusing of the front image against the background. I noticed a year ago that many of the Best Photos of the year had smoke or blurred images in the background. Seems you have the eye for photos, keep up the good work. Thanks from Andy of HoboTraveler.com Travel Blog and Hotels

    The third photo down is such a contrast between nature and urban development. The lone tree surrounded by concrete is very striking.

    @freedomwv,

    Thanks, I found that tree very interesting too. I had to take a picture of it. Have you ever been to Okinawa?

    Sadly, I have not been to Okinawa yet. Although, it is on my travel list. Where in Okinawa did you take the tree photo?

    @freedomwv,
    The tree picture was taken in Chatan, Okinawa area. It is right across the street from a shopping mall. Behind the stairs is Araha Beach.
