| James B. Edwards Bridge, Daniel Island, SC © Doug Hickok Although it may appear that a ray of light is beaming up from this lamp into outer space, in reality, this is not true. It is only a lamppost juxtaposed against a long bridge, cloaked in the mists of early morning. The geometry and perspective of this image create an optical illusion of sorts. So, don't worry everyone. This is not, I repeat, not a covert government operation to communicate with ET... ok? |

Wow - that's a fabulous monochrome! I love the composition and those beautiful soft shades of grey and how the bridge seems to recede into nothingness... Very impressive image!
ReplyDeleteJust perfect shot!
ReplyDeleteLove it, Love it, Love it!!! Again, I love anything grayscale and this one is particularly awesome.
ReplyDeleteExceptional composition and light!
ReplyDeleteNice abstract shot!
ReplyDeleteA fabulous image and fantastic composition. beautiful shades of grey and white. very well presented.
ReplyDeleteDo you realize the global repercussions of this post???? Don't come running to me when cities start getting zapped. I'm just saying.
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!! It is like a labrynth!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a fantastic picture! I still believe there is a secret operation going on there.... :)
ReplyDeleteIt takes a sharp and trained eye to create a picture with an optical illusion like this, and I guess the mist enhances the illusion quite much. It is a wonderful picture with a superb grayscale and I love how the mist emphasis the depth feeling in the "legs" of the bridges... But I still believe this is the ET-phone!
ReplyDeletegreat perspective and symmetrie, a really nice capture.
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful shot!
ReplyDeleteWow, this totally fooled me. Great job spotting this!
ReplyDeleteI like to see how the lines in your photo bring structure to the photograph and possess visual strength.
ReplyDeleteveramente una bella composizione. foto lineare e pulita. le luci così soffici creano un alone interessante. bravo

ReplyDeleteGreat shot, I love the effect as if a ray of light comes from the streetlamp.
