Sleeping creature

Another one from my trip to Retezat National Park a few weeks back. I'm getting ready to return to this place. This was shot on our way back and b&w seemed the right choice. Hope you like it, although I would be happier if you said it's rather scary. I don't expect somebody would buy a print.

Well seen, Dorin. You managed to create a dramatic and almost scary shot here.

It is a touch creepy.

So, if that was what you were going for here, you got it with me!I like the conversion and the lines.

It looks like an old octopus that found its demise in a large blender

Dorin,

Interesting image. It's certainly not comfortable to look at - at least for me. I like the originality of the image. Well seen.

To further Stan's comment, I'll bet many German's wished Paul the octopus looked something like this about now.

Not something I would hang on my wall, but I enjoy the mood and creativity of this shot.

Very dramatic, and an excellent choice for B&W. I agree that it's not an image I would really want on my wall, but still an excellent image.
