A signature bear_music subject (both of them). ;-) This reminds me of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. ...but with peppers. I am rather disappointed I haven't seen a woody shot from you yet. :(
that's just surreal!!
I've never seen a sunrise like it.
and I hope I never do.
actually, I think I would like to see one like that.
wouldn't it be weird if it actually happened?
A little overkill if you ask me - oh, and after showing off your extensive photoshop abilities by seamlessly weaving in the halepenos, you could at least have cloned out the sensor dust at the top of the frame :).
This is so strange and yet I like it anyway! I'm not sure of the significance of two chillis crossed into a heart shape nor the reason the tip touches the sun or the combination with a sea scape but... I do like surrealism and this one works for me!
I love this! Great idea, to take it a step further you might try backlighting the Jalapeno's to make it look like the sun is backlighting them. Still I have to give it a 10 for making me smile.
