Sorry, I don't get this one.

Nice image!  I think you certainly should have used the maximum rise possible on that lens in this situation.  That tall building is what it's for.  Even though you nearly got all the verticals straight, the image is still quite distorted.

Thank you for the kind words.

Not a conversion, but a scan from a 4x5 neg. 

Yes, Taylor, I certainly agree.  These animals are very skitterish.  I'm out there with a fixed focal length lens (probably a 500 f4) and there is a split second window to capture these darling little creatures without a million things in the way.  I'm in a stopped vehicle, and this is the framing that I had.  There was no way to move back or zoom out.  This was the most outstanding opportunity with the dikdik I had in over two weeks of shooting there.  

No rotation performed.  It is seen here in the orientation as it exists.

Sorry, but I find these extreme setup types of images uncomfortably unnatural and annoying. My favorite phrase applies here, "Just because you can doesn't mean you should". Note, this is my own opinion and may not jive with the many people in the world who consider this art or make a living from it.

I don't know if any of this is real, but sure looks like my old Les Paul!  Nice interpretation.

Thanks everyone.  This is a relatively small feature I found in Lower Antelope Canyon, in northern Arizona.  Not at the 'Wave", which is not too far from this location.

A wonderful misty morning, with a flaming sunrise coming up behind me, illuminating the

peak in colored light.

On a photo safari in 2008, I had the chance to visit a few Massai villages. This beautiful

boy rushed over and grabbed one of his prized possessions to show me. After all the

incredible wildlife I saw, this moment has permanently imprinted in my memory. I never got

his name, so to me he will always be Goatboy.

Thanks for your comments and ratings.
