nice... i like the hyper sharpening effect. the monotone adds a nostalgic feel, but i think i'd like the actual hues better. the photo looks like it was taken in late winter/early spring, btw 0630 - 0730 hrs facing southeast.

Doh... it never occurred to me to dink with the perspective to fix the verticals. Thanks!

Close... I took it in February, facing southwest.

Could you try variation without the moon?
For some reason moon distract me away from otherwise excellent composition and all of my attention goes to the right side (but this is probably just me).

I'll give it a go... but I must admit that I like having the moon in there.

Very cool. I'm giving it a run on the desktop background to replace the x-rayed makarov I currently use. The original is pretty nice too.

The tinting gives it a Mars "flavor" similar to the shots from the Mars Rover.

Nice shot there.
