I feel like I'm looking out the belly of a guitar through the hole, watching the strings vibrate. Congrats on the bling.

Apologies - no time for a 'Longer Look' comment before challenge end. I'll come back after.

Back to update this comment. Apologies, I'd forgotten I'd be in an Internet black hole before rollover.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: This has a sense of menace that intrigues me - there's nothing explicitly menacing here but the sense of foreboding you have created is palpable. Perhaps Deb's notion of 'harmonics' is on the money, but for me we are shaken, each jolt being positively reinforced by the next - 8.2 on the Richter scale!

The structures of of somewhat secondary interest but the light is something else all together - like a junction between night and day. The overall effect is one of day being broken.

Critical stuff: Nothing really.

Overall: A powerful image - communicates with more senses that it should.

My first thought was "amazing harmonics". Really an intriguing and satisfying presentation.
