All 3 are fantastic! I especially like the duotone. Ya just can't beat early morning light.

I like that a lot! But if it were clean, the feeling wouldnt be exactly the same. Its hard for me to explain why, though. Is it because over the years weve been conditioned to seeing that look as a part of B&W photography, especially older photos, or does it really touch a warm emotion deep inside? I knew an old DJ once who didnt like CDs when they first came out because he missed all the scratches and pops that he was used to with records. I often feel that some of the digital camera images I see are just a little too smooth or clean. I dont wanna feel like the old DJ, but I still like the film look better, especially B&W. And as for old photos, I tried to accomplish that look with another picture. Its called Wagon Wheels, and its in my gallery here at Renderosity. If you get a chance, check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks to you and picnic for your feedback. It really helps!

After getting home and gaving it a closer look on my home monitor I could see that it was indeed a second mountain, but I think I'd probably to take it out too because it would always catch my eye. Just a fantastic job and a beautiful place!

Amen. And thanks too.

Bin Laden issued warning three weeks ago, says editor 09/12/2001 South China Morning Post Saudi dissident Osama bin Laden warned three weeks ago that he and his followers would carry out an unprecedented attack on the US for its support of Israel, an Arab journalist with access to him said yesterday. Editor of the London-based al-Quds al-Arabi newspaper, Abdel-Bari Atwan, said Islamic fundamentalists led by bin Laden were "almost certainly" behind the attack. "It is most likely the work of Islamic fundamentalists. Osama bin Laden warned three weeks ago that he would attack American interests in an unprecedented attack, a very big one," he said. "We received information that he planned very, very big attacks against American interests. We received several warnings like this. We did not take it so seriously, preferring to see what would happen before reporting it." Atwan has interviewed bin Laden, one of America's most wanted men, and maintains close contacts with his followers. Bin Laden has been under constant watch by America's giant intelligence network - from CIA agents probing his latest hiding place to National Security Agency computers scanning global communications for key words related to his group. The sweep and the scale of what has been attempted rules out many fringe groups. The State Department has issued periodic warnings for American's overseas as rumours and intelligence point to unspecified attacks. The most recent came last month, but initial reports suggested the US authorities had nothing pointing to such an orchestrated and devastating attack. From several mountain hideouts in southern Afghanistan, bin Laden runs al-Qaeda, one of the world's most feared terrorist organisations. He is wanted by a US court for masterminding the bombing in 1998 of two US embassies in East Africa in which 224 people died. In August 1996 he issued a "declaration of war" against the US, because of what he saw as its position as a secular superpower and because of the presence of US troops in Saudi Arabia. Born in Jeddah in 1955, bin Laden is the son of a construction magnate. In the 1980s he used his inherited wealth to run the "Services Office", which provided fighters and money for Afghanistan's war against Soviet occupation. Bin Laden is believed to be responsible for an attempted assassination attack on Sunday against Ahmad Shah Masood, Afghanistan's most senior opposition commander and the only force still resisting the Taleban.

This is absolutely beautiful. Great work too on putting the images altogether. The only place that looks like an overlap, or where there is a bit of a double image, is on the mountaintop line almost 1/4 way in from the left side. I love that sky too!

I can speak for Bobby, he would have no problem with it going there if rcook just lifts it like I did.

Must have been tired last night, or I'm just bad in math. NBD, but 1930 was 70 years ago; I counted it to be 60! I remember Pepsi bottles too, but didn't realize until now that I haven't seen any for the last 20 years. Or is it 30? sigh As to posting size, I post horizontally a 999 pixels, which fits fine if your monitor resolution is at 1024x768, which I understand is what most people use for serious computer work. Is that correct, or is home use still normally at 800x600? Any opinions? I like big pictures.

If you would have told me that was some kind of computer art, I would have believed it! Just goes to show ya how much we often try to "create" things that are already there in front of us!

FYI, a review of the mtv awards show. MTV'S JUDY MCGRATH: WANTED FOR THE MURDER OF MUSIC One day we will wake up from this nightmare. Long after we rip out the infected pierced stud in our tongues and wash off all our tats and forget we ever witnessed three-and-a-half-hours of something called The Eighteenth Annual MTV Video Music Awards... we'll possibly be able to look at ourselves in the mirror again. President of the MTV Group Judy McGrath, 48, is wanted for the murder of music. "J LO, PLEASE LET ME SNIFF YOUR BUTT." "I'M ABOUT TO BE BORN AGAIN ON YOUR BASTARD ASSES." Thursday night in New York City, McGrath, who has been there from the beginning, unleashed her latest remix of pop culture at the Metropolitan Opera; still determined to call her product Music Television, although any music is a side order in the Taco Bell-sponsored shopper's guide. "THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO THOUGHT WE WOULD MAKE GOOD WHORES." "THIS PERFORMANCE HAS BEEN DEDICATED TO THE LOVING MEMORY OF AALIYAH." McGrath, a star in the VIACOMCBS family, knew she had hit the Zeitgeist with promos for the "Music Awards" which featured host Jamie Foxx simulating intercourse with a live sheep. You could almost hear McGrath applaud, cheer and order heavy rotation as Foxx gyrated his pelvis into the sheep. Her latest exploitation of Black Americans, and sheep. The usual corporate shills -- U2, Jennifer Lopez, Moby, Mick Jagger -- once again showed up to celebrate the McGrath vision: Someone played a guitar. Someone screamed into a microphone. Someone picked up a pair of drumsticks and waved them in the air. Someone wore a black leather jacket and thanked Joey Ramone who gave us Jessica Simpson who shot daggers at lip-syncing Britney who is still a virgin at least with humans but nevertheless qualified as McGrath's top carny. "OUR NEXT PRESENTER IS THE STAR OF MTV'S JACKASS, AND SOMEONE WHO WILL JACK YOUR ASS." Classic Judy McGrath. The woman who murdered music.

Ditto on both your comments. I dont let my 13 year old watch MTV either. For that matter, most of the channels on television these days! BTW, nice piece of work!

Wow! This would be a must have tool for those difficult projects! It would let you know when you're messing up! A tool with an attitude. Great concept!

Ive been here for a few months now, and Im excited about what Im reading here. Not a day goes by that I dont visit renderosity, and getting to learn everyones personality is an interesting process! Congrats to Alpha!
