hahahah, ty all very much. Some real cool tips out there. I think I will take most of into consideration when I try something similar next time. Now back to what Misha asks ... what inspired me to do this?? Well, I was actually looking for a 5 Inch cockroach which I had sighted there and went to get my cam but too late the big fella had himself somewhere and never came to view. Anyway, I did add some more life to the lifeless terrain, here it is. Hope you all enjoy it and yeah, you can shoot this image too.
