Thanks -- not quite! I'd guess we were moving between 15-25 mph at the time -- people perform this stunt regularly at this location, so I was somewhat prepared for it, although I couldn't stage it for them to cut in front of me.

It was a little tricky as I had to hold the camera well off to the side to shoot around the Acura. The color is actually pretty much the way it looked -- this was right around sunrise on the shaded side of the hills.

Something I was guilty of too ... probably one form of "cheating" I'd tend to encourage.

Similar to an idea I had but didn't use -- nice work.

Funny, the rough outlines -- especially of the left photo -- closely resemble a satellite photo of the Horn of Africa/Arabian Peninsula area.

Thanks -- after I submitted it I thought maybe I should have spelled it "Whaat?!"

I'm interested in seeing how "broad" minded DPC voters are.

Good use of the fencing to accentuate the width.

It would be funny to run some sort of facet filter on this, to give the impression of the insect's compound eye as well as its perspective. Clever idea, welldone.
