This is what popped into my skull when the latest contest was announced. I shot the photo in the improvised studio of my desktop. I couldn't get the angle as low as I wanted. So I played with the perspective a bit, skewered the results you could say or distorted the truth depending on how you look at it. Hope you enjoy the image and your comments welcomed

This is a great idea - after all, why try and show an eternity if you can represent it in a minute.

Hey, Wendell...

I really like the dark background, the detail, depth of field and the black and white. That's pretty shifty of you using the 8 for the infinity. A brilliant shot. "Faved". Very smart?

I must agree with those above, a very clever and unique idea and right on using the 8 that disappears into the darkness and beyond...good for you in coming up with something original...all the best in the contest, Wendell.
