+1 to that. I'm looking for the Zombies!

Thanks, guys, I appreciate it.
Re: Large Format Landscapes
Great job scm! I like the sky too; it adds a great deal to the photo.
Here's the rare 8x10 from me. 19" B&L Sigmar at f5.6 and 1/30s. Shooting into the sun, using the darkslide for a shade. TMY2 in PMK.

A very interesting image. I like the way lines of the clouds mirror those of the train tracks. The lack of atmospheric distance (and the darkness of the hills and the sky bringing the sky/background visually forward) fighting with the road that does give a sense of distance, helps to create a sense of tension (or strangeness, as someone mentioned) in the image. Well done!
Harley -- wonder image of the open country!
