Uplifting*

"Lucy in the Sky..." Since LSD has long been illegal, my goal was to capture an image that when stared at long enough lifted you into the sky spiritually as the song implies. I feel the blown out section of this image is where you are lifted to.

Doug, that is the fun of the challenges, it is up to the photographer to decide what they want to submit! I understand your point here and think you did it pretty well. However, I think the massive stone tends to draw us back to earth. Could you try this same thing with just trees? Or try cropping it so that there is less stone in the image. ~Sharon

How long do I have to stare at it Doug? I think a tab might be easier:-)
This does have a drawing up effect so well done mate:-)
