If I'm being honest, I find the motion hurting my eyes. I see no real subject. I do like this sort of thing at times, but it's just not working for me here. Sorry... :-/

| That makes me really dizzy, which is awesome. I don't think a still photo has ever done that to me. |

Yes it is demented in its own way and I don\'t know about you but it did hurt my eyes to look at it!! Thats the way I viewed it the first three or four times. But first a word from our sponsor............
I hate long commercials. Sorry.
Let me give you some history on this. I did the usuall, I envisioned the image before Taking it. The problem here is that it came out no where close to what I envisioned, After I sent it through Post OP!Ooops! LOL! It hurt my eyes; however, I forced my way back through the pain to look at it three or four more times. I don\'t take drugs but after looking at it for the eight time, I thought I started to hallucinate. Somebody call 911 and get my psychiatrist on the line!! But then I start to gooo with the flooow...just gooo with the flooow Mark. I started to see faces in the trees...no not a bear SH% in the Woods; although, if you look at \'Depth of Field Preview\' (this one won\'t hurt your eyes as much, although it is still painfull to look at. So be warned) you will see a pile of brown something or other in the painfully green grass near the center tree and and five clicks south of the tadpole sitting on a log by the bridge! And I hope this finally answers the question once and for all...DOES A BEAR SH&* IN THE WOODS.
Has anybody heard from 911 yet!
I\'m sorry...back to the faces on the treeeeesssss. Ahhhhhhhh...I think my sanity is nearby...he just called to let me know he\'d be home soooooon...how sooooon. Ok back to the faces. The first face is on the front treetrunk in the lower left corner of the image and I like it here because the eyes kept my attention longer than anything else in the image...but wait...why go back and look again...wasn\'t the first eight trips through enough...No!! I forced myself on to give it another look see! Ouch!! The second face that mystically appeared was located in the upper right corner of the image on the treetrunk. Ohhh...I was so happy...I thought I had finally reached a point where I no longer had to look at this image. Wronnng. I\'m ok...really...I\'m ok. As I started to look away for the last time, something caught the corner of my eye and forced me back in...I had no strength left at this point to resist.!! Yet another set of eyes floated into the scene that caught my attention. No...that\'s not it...it was the mouth. There is a white twig that runs vertically (the twig looks like it was put through a triple exposure) in the lower right corner of the image and at the center of this twig and just to the left of it, is a mouth. Folks...this is the way it came out of the camera...I put no mouth in this image...I started shaking...looking for my momma now...forget 911!! If that\'s not bad enough, just above the mouth but what should appear (no not ten tiny reindeer but that would have been a better hallucination) but a nose with a white stick running through it...I\'m going into convulsions now...but then the eyes...those terrible eyes!!
As I ran through the house and out the door, I yellowed out to my wife...Honey...would you please turn off the computer! OOOHHHH...what a relief!
What I\'m about to tell you, you should never be repeated to anyone. Never do the following:
1. Setup your tripod in a forrest to take a picture having envisioned something.
2. Never ever think about doing an HDR image!!! (I can\'t say it...they\'re listening...shooooo!! High Dynamic Range whatever)
3. Don\'t take the twelve or so images of the trees and run the following in PS CS2: File | Automate | Merge to HDR.
4. Please...Please...Please don\'t run a levels and curves trying to correct a problem that will never ever go away.
5. And finally, whatever you do after all the warnings...never ever in your worst nightmare should you do an unsharp mask or smart sharpen (?????).
I think its safe to come out now...the technicians are installing PSP9 with update to 9.1. Oh yea...did anyone ever hear from 911. Really...flooded with calls about trees in the Park and a movement in the forrest...Must be a bear.
This is it...Just one last thing...I promise...HDR images are used to create 3D images. No...really they are. I promise. ;-)
Thanks for all your feedback on the image, it is appreciated with warm acceptance.
