djedfre from schaumburg, United States
great 'aerial' shot - i can picture him at 'ground' level - the spikes towering overhead!
5 Sep 2008 7:10am
@djedfre: GREETINGS+THANKS
@Evelyne Dubos: merci Bien ED
@Marie: Bonjour MArie, merci
Disoriented from Grinnell, IA, United States
Now *this* is my favorite composition!!! As djedfre says, the aerial shot is great and what works are the shadows of the needles which look like mountains. But the ant provides a visual anchor to remind yourself that it's not mountains but the needles from a cactus plant. Great job!
