Well worth the effort. Am amazed the shutter speed is so low @ 1/160 and a small aperature @ f22, I imagine it was well lit? (being nosy, still a relative novice and learning techniques etc and this type of photography always intrigues me and makes me want to try something similar, just to learn from).
What a great image and a testimony to you technical skills and patience. People think these kinds of shots just "happen" for us Pros, we know better. Well done!
