I, too, love Kramer’s quote and think it highly apt for this photograph. What the heck is it from?
Google tells us it’s from the Max Payne video game.
Aaaaaargh! Bundy!! You can’t say long words and stuff around me, ok? It’s on account of I’m hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobic.

Kramer said :
“The sun went down with practiced bravado. Twilight crawled across the sky, laden with foreboding.”
What a brilliant quote Kramer. (Haven’t heard from you for a while BTW.)
And a great shot – nature + B&W = stunning (often).
PS: you’ve gotta love this town…

Thanks all. Yeah it’s HDR in Photomatix and tweaked in Photoshop (black and white etc)
I’m now picturing Danman sticking pins into an effigy of you. 😛
Cool pohto btw.

My apologies, i should have gone and had a look at the flickr page where it says that its a HDR before taking a guess as to what effect was used.

: D
Granny: I have. It’s called “The RiotACT”. It’s cheaper than a real doctor and nearly as effective.
RiotFrog, have you sought help for these … er, conversations you’ve been having?!
; )
The photo is very impressive. Kind of grand and majestic, actually!
Why yes RiotFrog, there is: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24194848@N07/3187591234/
