Here is my candidate as being almost quite good. In fact it is two painstakingly joined.

Taken up in the mountain at Skurdalsvatn in 2000.
Though this one takien in Warsaw in November 2006 is not bad:

I know there are several good photgraphers here, and it would be nice to see some of you best efforts if you feel inclined to share!

Not a dud amongst them. Nice set indeed. 3,4 and the last one are my faves.
Thanks Winky.
Then I went to Madeira. Astonishing place!

Very nice set.......Take no.3 into B&W and up the contrast (and brightness a shade) and it will be superb I'd wager
Love the barrels too.

VoilĂ . Thanks.
Although maybe I have overdone the brightness/contrast a bit.
I would go even higher on the brightness then contrast !
I prefer the colour version.

I think maybe you are right winky!

No, Debs, just art work in the shape of palm trees made of metal and semi-transperant plastic. If the were solar panels they would all be pointing at the same direction.

That figures : )
But the art work is fantastic imho, i just thought it would be really cool if they were also solar.
Although i don't know if it would be workable and cost effective in that setting.

Debs,
Another part of the art work is in the shape of palm branches on the ground, functioning as benches. When I tried to capture them I was stopped by a policeman who forced me to delete the images on the grounds that these were also being used as obstacles bordering a federal building and that I was not allowed to take pictures of them. That's what I call ballistic art.

Haim,
A ram-raid with a fully loaded paint wagon would make good ballistic art ; )
