I actually had been sitting in the pool for quite a while, trying to stay cool, when it struck me that for as far as the eye could see, there was nothing but the lake and this martian landscape. When taking the picture, I must have decided subconsciously to cut out the water by moving the POV up to capture the land's texture and as I have recently learned from a fellow TrekNature member, putting the horizon halfway up a landscape picture gives it a nice balance....
If we make it to Mars, this is what we would see, just not with such a blue sky!
No filters. No flash. No tripod. No frills. No pp. Taken with an autofocus camera years ago. Scanned. Re-sized. Cropped a bit. No people. One desert. |

Scott,
Cropped it. Took off the "top".
Warmified it.
Voila ... Mars on earth in Egypt.
Okey ??? It is, afterall, YOUR great creation.
Warm greetings,
Mario. |
