Excellent result, I must say. I visualize a rock in the ocean with a smaller one behind and lapping waves.

Destruction

I found this old photo whilst looking for something else, and decided to create something from it.

That sounds about right, but it is a really huge rock.

It's very beautiful - love the look you were able to create!

That's a truly fantastic capture. The thing on the left looks like the head of a dying mecha dinosaur, and I really love the dark symbolism of this image. It also works very well in B&W, particularly with the contrasting dark and bright areas. Just wonderful!

I like it. A bit hypnotizing, I keep waiting to pull into a station or look up at the scenery. I can feel myself sitting in a seat on the NJT on the way into the city.

Coats of arms that make a patterned ceiling and the pennant of the crusaders of experiences, leading the way.
Move quickly, we have a time table, the next crusaders for experience will be here shortly.

Really nice capture at the moment of takeoff. I don't know why transitions, places where animals are just starting to move or just finishing moving are so interesting.

Wow. Painting with a camera in a fraction of a second.
Do you go to certain places when its foggy to try to get an image like this or was it a random thing?

Dozer, the destroyer of small worlds.
I like the graduated gray tones, darker in the fore ground and lighters as the building is more demolished. A sense of lightening up as the building is removed. It reveals; the structure of the building and also the light.

A lovely shot. Looking like a painting

I agree - it really has the quality of a painting, not just in its tones, but also the excellent composition. I'm sure I wouldn't be able to find that particular spot in a scene like that as welll as the framing where everything looks pretty much impeccable. Wonderful work!

Interesting construction that brings to mind a gigantic honeycomb. Lots of nice curves, some architectural and some induced by your wide angle lens, which you use so well. And you and Mike always seem to find ladies wearing red coats to give us some extra interest.

Lovely image worthy of a travel agent's advertising brochure. Wonderful gothic architecture at the end of converging rows of carefully manicured trees in slightly varying fall colors. A perfect sky with marshmallow puff clouds, one that anybody would want in their photo. And one couple obviously enjoying themselves and making a keepsake shot in the moment. Very nice.

That's a lot of family histories up there. Colorful and intricate, and no telling how old, they have to impress. The arched shapes drive the view down the vaulted ceiling to the door where more await. It looks like the flag being carries says VIP - if so, it seems appropriate for these families surely must have considered themselves that. (Of course it may mean something entirely different in another language, so there's that). Nice color and detail.

Gives quite a sensation of movement, of rushing down those rails aboard a fast moving train. The shiny silver lines (the big ones and the little ones) lead the eye from lower left to upper right in one powerful sweep that we can't help but follow. I'm curious about the red ghost on the tracks. It gives us a mystery to think about. A shade of an unfortunate victim of accident or malice? A passerby? Part of the train itself?
