Plan Jane shot gets NatGeo recognition?

Ok i might catch some flack for this, but I'm always dumbfounded when photos like this get recognized on the lead page of yahoo. I'm not taking anything away from this shot, it is a nice shot, but this shot is a dime a dozen nowadays. People are making comments like "oh that is a one-in-a-million shot!" Anyways i'll shut up now.
