Like looking at a ghost at the end of a tunnel.

If the rules allowed it something like this would have been good for the current Abstract Motion challenge -- great swirling effect and colors.

A fine example of the diversity all around us ... I like the variety of perspectives and the square crop works well.

On a second third look I would probably have switched positions between the top corner photos in the composite, so that the main characters would be looking "in" rather than out, although I know that's just the "standard" approach ...

A charming look at a bit of "small town America" not 20 miles from downtown San Francisco.

Sometime around 1970 my dad and I took a class at SF State where we excavated a former Native American habitation site on one of the nearby ranches ... on the very last day we found a burial site.

Someplace I have a topographic map I made after we learned how to survey the site ...

Reminds me a little of the invaders from War of the Worlds ... :-)

Very nice stitching job. Personally, I'd have probably bumped the contrast and saturation a little, but that's just my style -- colors are great.

Both the photo and the explanation are well-done!

At The Crucible they teach people to make/work with inert-gas lights ΓΆ€” at an Open House I've seen a display where they have a sample piece of light using each of the gasses to show the different colors they produce.

Trying to figure out where those "tulips" in the "window" came from!

Great job capturing the fog/mist.
