Location: Kumgang Mountain, DPR (North) Korea.
Taken while on a guided hike through the mountains this photo really captures how small I, indeed all the hikers and our guides, felt. Were were dwarfed by the sheer size of the mountain, often is seemed to enclose us on all sides. Even the limitless sky seemed to be in the mountain's palm.
Humans think we rule the world. Perhaps not.
If I was ever going to print a photo the size of a billboard this would be it. Not because it's photographically stunning (the colours are a bit bland to be honest) but just so you could get a feel for just how insignificant we humans are in this big world.

Indeed I like the photo and I totally agree on just how insignificant we humans are in this big world. We never ruled the world we just learnt to adapt to it. Most of all, I believe there is God behind all of these great things who created'em all.

I like your idea. Whenever we see all natures, we can feel God's grace around us.

WoW! Not only would I feel insignificant, but scared to death to take this hike! I love the outdoors, but I am not sure my nerves could handle this one.
Great shots as always.
