Re: A Hole in Mars
Interesting. I immediately saw it as concave and can barely make myself flip it and see it as convex. I agree the almost straight overhead perspective and shadows seem to make it a bit off for viewing it as convex. http://www.moillusions.com/wp-content/uploads/i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb234/vurd...

Re: Teimareh Petroglyphs and Star Trails
Well, I'm surprised no one else took the bait on "Prometheus". You're all either far more forgiving than I am (which doesn't take much), or you're as ashamed as I am to admit you spent good money on it. You forgot the third option: that everyone else heard the reviews and didn't deign to ...
