Wow - striking contrasts and a great sunburst effect on that light.

Beautiful light rays - I like how the angled shadow lines running along the ground create shapes that provide a counterpoint to all those vertical lines of the trees.

I like the title tie-in with your shot - it's a neat way to think of this scene. Love this processing - the tones in all those gentle pinks are beautiful.

With the way those feet are going, that's an opening all right! :) Nice shot of an imminent take-off.

Nice color contrasts, that brilliant blue makes for an irresistible landing strip - he's even got his landing gear down! :) Now we just need another bee waving him in with a glow stick.

Achingly intimate shot. His expression could be read any number of ways - at the moment I see him as protesting going to bed, as all the while his eyelids are getting more and more heavy.

Evening Closing In

It's a tad underexposed, in the sense that if you wanted to get a bit more detail in the water you could have slowed the shutter speed just enough to do that without seriously compromising that fantastic sky, but even so you've got good drama here with these shadows and shadows of shadows. Looks like the clouds are settling in for a long nap.

Laundry

Who knew laundry could be so fascinating? Really like how you pulled so much interest and detail from a presentation that is largely all one basic color. Nice abstract washing.

That ballroom/Grand Central scene was great in Fisher King - you do capture a bit of the dance ball look with the light effect, here.
