   Hauntingly bold! I can almost hear music playing in the background!

   Very 2001 feel (the movie, not the year). I love the dramatic composition! 🙂

     Thanks! It reminded me of it also. Now if I could only get the theme song out of my head! 🙂

     It’s actually the sun, just with dropped exposure and shooting towards it on a very cloudy day. WIsh it were a crescent moon, that would have made it much cooler!

    There’s a really nice primeval (sp?) feel to this for me. It reminds me of Stone Henge. Really cool shot.

      Cheers, Richard! That’s kind of what I was going for. The way the structure is pointing towards the sun, like an ancient sun worshiping tribe’s monument.

    Very ominous…I agree with the others re: having a movie-like quality about it….

    Hi, Robert. I like everything about this, the moodiness, the heavily silhouetted structure pointing into the foreboding sky toward the sun. Really neat.

        Thanks, John! I also have that problem too sometimes, I’m not really sure what causes it. Did you do anything specific to fix it, or did it just work it’s way out?

          On Reader, there’s “Blogs I Follow” on the left hand side and next to it”Edit List”. if you click on that you get a list of all the blogs you follow and how you want to get them. I found that under the email column, most of mine for some reason were on “never”, so I changed to “instantly” and hey presto!

    Beautiful & a very atmospheric piece. Film Noir combined with an art deco sensibility.
