 The original title was.....

...we know that you can hear us earthmen!

Sadly the Mysterons mistook Captain Scarlet for a tree. (and that's for us elders).

Was out in the garden playing with the 500mm Mirror Lens and spotted the eyes while doing some panning work, only got a couple of shots as the light changed and the bright white eyes (sky showing through the trees) dissapeared. I think the tree is running toward the viewer (can trees scream?). I showed it to a friend who saw the 'peace' symbol so changed the title though am sure you guys can come up with another title for it ;)

I must admit. All I can see is that tree fleeing in horror. Those big round eyes that could make a tree flee.

Nope, you have the perfect title. Glad you noticed the effect & captured it. You could also put this in the Emotive category, there's lots of emotion in this. I like the way this gives me the tree in a way I could never see it for myself. Well done.

Ah ha! Shogun standing on his head while wearing his helmet which I imagine is quite uncomfortable. Funny image!
