I found this in my files, it was very hard to figure out what would work in different screens. This looks different in m tab, home and work computers. Any suggestions and comments welcome!

The original link broke

Here is a reworked version

    Works fine on my screen. The black is shiny like it's been painted with
    gloss enamel. A shiny part doesn't work well, but when everything is shiny
    it does work. Good crop.

    I might burn those two areas at the bottom right where the ground shows.
    Burn 'em just enough that they don't look quite so light because the
    overall black carries the image.

    Usually, when posting an image that will show on a black background as
    seen in DGrin, I'll add a thin white stroke to identify the edges. This
    wide white frame really works with this image, though. It adds contrast
    to the image.

    It's an interesting shot, Cristóbal, and it displays well on my monitor. The conflicting geometries of the elements come through well and add tension. The only thing that throws me off is the unequal width of the white framing....my eye wants to see the framing to be consistent all the way around. That's probably just a personal quirk and doesn't really detract from a nice image.

    See you, buddy,

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Thanks for the comments, I will try to burn those areas. This pic has proven to be quite a challenge to process.
