Yep, this one would be hard to duplicate. I only wish he would have worked a little more to level the horizon and position that object in space a little more to the right.
Hey Wayne, how about this location for the 2010 Spring Gathering?
Best,
Don

Hey Don, I think there would be some interest for sure!
By the way, do you know if this was taken with a view camera or one of those Kodak Instamatic X-15's?

What is really neat is that this photo belongs to all of us and you can download and make a print of it. Only cost us a few billion bucks, but I for one think it was well worth it. It was shot with an old Hassy...Peace On Earth....

Yeah, they obviously didn't have those little bubble levels back then. Actually I wonder if a bubble level would even work in space...
In checking some of the links on the page Don posted, I saw some of the stereo pairs/strips that have been shot, and thought how cool it would be to print a stereo pair of a nature scene somewhere and view it through a stereoscope, or possibly stereo glasses (never tried them before). A scene from the edge of a bluff might really be cool!
