An elephant lynching...yikes...apparently PETA wasn't active back then. :down:
To become truly immortal, a work of art must escape all human limits: logic and common sense will only interfere. But once these barriers are broken, it will enter the realms of childhood visions and dreams.

I hate to be the killjoy again but do we have another photoshopped shot? Those ferns and blades of grass seem too huge compared to the person. I would guess the rock in the middle would be only a few feet wide. If it IS in fact real, its amazing! :)

I have to agree but what I noticed that's odd to me is the background. It looks like a waterfall inside the cave...and for some reason or another it looks like Niagara lit up at night to me.

ferns get pretty large in tropical regions (as they don't die off seasonally).

Hard to tell, now that you mention it, take it for what it's worth, I got it form here, lots of other great photos there too

OK, how about this one, a scuba diver somehow floating over the water of a river, with trees around him?

It's actually in a cave where different layers in the water have different visual properties.
