Dark Days

This is was made from a snap of a painting at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center (artist unknown).
I converted to B&W, and gave it that Edger Allen Poe feel..
Ya know, the guy that said "I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity." :jump:

Howard, I love the shot from 5 perspectives, photographic, artistic, the fact that I am a Poe fan and the fact that I am an amateur astrononmer with a particular fascination with the moon (plus one of my friends is Gene Cernan, the last man on the moon!), and the fact that I love shooting birds - especially capturing unique shots of them. I love it!! :toast:

This is very cool, Howard, and just a touch ominous (brings to mind "The Birds" as well as Poe). I could see cropping a bit from the bottom and maybe also from the right to further emphasize that stark silhouettes. Neat job of "seeing".
