An alien from War of the Worlds.......

Canon 20D
Canon EF-S 60mm Macro f/2.8
ISO800 1/100sec f/4.5

Taken January 1, 2007 during an alien invasion in Sudbury, MA

Thanks for looking and for any comments and critiques.

Hope this fits the theme.
Bad - I was hoping for more detail in the water droplet but could not quite get it. Good - I does remind me of an alien from War of the Worlds (the original version).

Eva,
This may be hard for you to believe but there are a lot of folks out there that do not even know that Sudbury was invaded. It is good to have proof! But then again you may be one of them. :eek:

Eva, I will give my alien the advise not to pick an argument with yours!

I love how a seed of description can be planted that takes the viewer to a whole different world when viewing a photograph. With your description Eva this is very cool.

Great entry....I agree with Brad...the name gives it a whole new meaning from being a water droplet.

I don't like the way it's looking right at me.. It looks like it's coming for me!....maybe Dan's bug willl get it....but, then, Dan's bug might team up with this guy and get us all!
