The best yet and I understand it. I too am taking some time off, i need to learn and figure out where I go from where I am. I'll see you on the other side.

Nice shot
Wonderfully clever image, with a sad title.
Reminded me of the movie "Shane", which has perhaps the most moving parthian scene of any movie. I hope the tunnel has a two-way door, 'cos I still got lessons to learn.
There are so many yellow bridges in this place! ... the lights me atorementan ... and the diffuse figures are very terrifying.
All the best to you, Mal.
The photo reminds me of the Twilight Zone. Are they coming to get me or are they going away? Probably both. -Mary Beth
Very nice shot. I am ducking just in case they are the Parthians
All the best to you too.
very cool
Why do you do this to me first thing in the morning when my eyes are still in bed....excellent, did you borrow Eddys Cider Goggles for this one??? I should up the beta blocker dosage as well,those shakes are getting worse.....
...but victory for who?
Weird, great.
Mals going spooky on us. Nice
You shooting backwards now? Then you are seriously good.
Your comment makes the Parthian shot sounds like a parting shot. Hope you are not going anywhere else than looking for the next picture opportunity. Great picture of passage in the tube passage - tops.
Really cool, now share you secret as to hoiw you take these shots.
Suby P.s I am a simpleton so you have to make your reply as basic as possible lol
Great tunnel-shot. I really like the blur and the light.
parthian shot?Hope that doesn't mean your off?
paul.
Not sure if you got my email...
LOL, you had me cracking up there Mal. Thanks for information, I have tried this vaseline thingy before but I was pants at it, okay I tried it for like 5 minutes and gave up, I have the patience of a dog Well maybe I will give it another go, now have to go find my filter wherever it is Suby
lovely lovely lovely...
I really love these your motion blurs...I'm going to try one out for myself.
Very intereting blur... where abstract meets reality... when silhouettes meet shadows, look like a liquid, no ? Original shot Mal !
isn't it a bit out of focus?
Mal: yes, your right Helga, it is out of focus but somebody broke my lens! All the best. mal
Looks like a baad hang-over...
Seriously, I liked your "ghost in the machine" interpretation more. The fascinating thing there was the contrast between the seemingly solid ground/walls and the fluid/ghostly people. This one here is much more uniformly distorted.
I had to look up that word, Mal: Partian--"relating to, being, or having the effect of a shot fired while in real or feigned retreat." HA! So now I get it. No wonder everyone likes it!
Thanks to Ginnie I know what your on about Mal
Parthians, I looked them up too, couldn't resist and had no idea anybody else had until I read the other comments. The Parthians they died out, good horsemen, shot arrows backwards when they were retreating as a 'parting shot' .. I hope this isn't any of those (arrows or parting shots) Mal and that we'll see you here always.
I like the sense of eeriness and slight foreboding in this picture, but I do prefer your seascapes
Not deliberately i hope....
Mal: no not deliberately. I gave it to them. but they dropped it! So the images are a little blurred now.
more than the blur i love the tones on this mal and they really make the shot. hope they didn't break one of the l lenses. jokes aside the shot is very powerful and hope there is light at the end of the tunnel
Very exciting and vibrant.
Nice shot! Very cool indeed. I love the green tint.
Like experimentation !
I love this blurry artistic effect! really cool and great tones
Wow! is a amazing work
Wow, this is quite intense when it pops up on the screen! Great effect.
