Wish the kid's face was a little more visible out the eye. This is a very relevant subject. Nice find.

Oh my...that is unexpected. I would expect an eyeball...not an entirely different person!

Very nice capture.

kyla said 302 days ago:

I am curious as to why you didn't rotate this shot- otherwise it is really good.

winetou said 302 days ago:

very cool, I had to look around the photo to see what it was when I first saw it, so that pretty much wins high marks for relevance. Made me think of that Percy Bysshe Shelley poem, 'Ozymandias'

This poem:

Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away."
