 This is Lanyon Quoit nr Madron, Cornwall,UK. I took this shot whilst on holiday last year.

It stands out to me because it was the first time I had attempted really long night time exposures in digital. It may not be perfect but I love the way it turned out. The orange/purple glow in the background is the lights of throbbing Penzance!

I have no idea what this is but it looks interesting and a bit surreal with those colours.

Not really the colors you expect with a dolmen, but I like the combination of blue and red.

You've lost me with the title, but otherwise it's an interesting abstract. Ah, googled it. Neat stones.

I had to look up your title, so congrats, you helped me learn something new today! :D

This is a neat shot, with an interesting subject. The only thing that's bothering me really is the sky; It almost seems too smooth and perfect..

great colors, but i would like to see more of the context for these rocks .
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This feels neon to me, like a painting you'd see in a laser tag fort or black light bowling.

Im not liking the colors. Looks very unnatural but I do like the subject.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 04:59:32 PM
Interesting colours. Not sure if the blue was out of the camera, or the result of processing, but find that the colours in the sky are what I like best here.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 01:11:04 PM
I may be wrong, but it seems a little over-saturated. Where is this?

The lighting on this make it look like a small model
