I shot this on my way home from work one day in december

all comments and constructive advice etc is welcomed!

Canon 10D :: Canon EF 17-40mm f4L :: 1/90 s :: F 16 :: 17mm :: ISO 200 :: No Flash Fired

i believe i used an ND filter for this shot... although im not 100% sure.

Nice picture. If the horizon was a little smoother it kinda does look like it could be a shot from outside the planet's atmosphere.

Nice picture. Maybe crop it square. God bless Texas

Nice shot, Abel. Love the camera tilt. Adds a whole new dimension.

Shpoop · 02-24-2005, 06:43 PM

Very, very nice. I don't suppose you have a larger version, do you?

i really like this picture. it can be viewed from so many different perspectives.

Lovely photo and this pretty much debunks the myth that the horizon must be perfectly straight for a photo to be good. I would like to see a larger photo, plus I wouldn't mind seeing the original photo without the tilt for a comparison.

To help the others on the page, I think I found out the answer to this picture. Let me illustrate it.
