Superb! Dramatic scene and fantastic editing. Double congratulations, on your new camera and high score. Now we know Structor is really Waldo :-)

Yes Mark, you were close when you thought my photo was Structor's because he really is in the photo. It is my brother Structor hiding there behind the door.

Wow! I have been so envious of people getting those 5D's, and this certainly fuels my envy! This is truly stunning!

Behind the door?

Very good! Love the saturation of the colors, not to mention the setting where this image was taken and 'Waldo' is well hidden. :)

Well, I like the photo. I used a magnifiying glass and I think there might be somebody hiding in the crack between the two tall rocks or door or whatever that is. Looks like some grafitti on the door. I'll go with an 8. The sky has a 'dreamy' effect but the horizon line is weird to me. Did I say 8, I mean 9.

Oh look, is that a door in the hill? Nice place to hide. the sky looks funky interesting.

Is that a bomb shelter or something? I don't think I'd step in even as far as Waldo is! Nicec colors and tones in this.

Great landscape great sky !

I'm not sure why you would need an underground bunker there . . there doesn't seem much to bomb : )

Nice colors, and the composition is good.

I didn't need to look closer (Waldo was pretty easy to see), but I don't mind that; what's important to me is the image itself, which is very strong. I want to find that place, with those clouds, and those hills. Are there dragons hiding nearby, or is it just a peaceful place to visit. Gets my imagination going. Well done. 8.

06/26/2007 02:35:55 PM
Well Done! I think you should win the red ribbon.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
06/26/2007 01:28:11 PM
is there somebody in that little wooden looking thing over there?? nicely done!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
06/26/2007 12:50:30 PM
Oh my word forget about waldo by the mysterious door (where is it leading to) and instead just bask inthe wonderous sky. Amazing colour and 3d feeling to it. Stunning!!!!!!

Well hidden, I love the sky. Your composition is very neat.

Reminds me of the hubbub around the Y2K bunkers everyone was talking about. Great find! I love the sky and green. Nice leading line and processing.

Good idea. The path kind lead me right to the person. So it didn't take much to find.
