***EDIT
Due to the requests, I have now made this available as a print. If you order one, I would like a note when you get it to find out how the quality is. This means I re-uploaded the image to a higher quality, I hope it looks better for all of you!

Also thanks to all those who have been commenting and 'ing this image before and after it was awarded its DD! A special thanks goes out to for suggesting it!

Taken yesterday morning at Stoney Point on Lake Superior. I was just positioning myself (uncomfortably) on the rocks to try and get a good angle. I looked up and at the camera when the whole world seemed to slow down. I could see the water moving in at a close rock it had been avoiding up until this point. I got ready and clicked, as the world still slowed down only to pause just as I released the shutter. It felt like everything stopped for a few seconds only to rush fast forward to catch up with time, who I will let you know stops for no one.

I hadn't been looking through the viewfinder at the time of the picture and I was barely able to see the LCD screen, but I knew I got the picture and couldn't be happier about it. I had done some level adjustments to even out the histogram. Other than that, this is what I saw.

I chose the title because it looks like a hand trying to grab the sun, only to be melted and separated into a dozen little soft specs helpless against gravity.
