Three BEAUTIFUL images Sam.

Very creative and beautiful images. The ball almost looks place a planet reflecting the spectacular rock formations and the detail of the rock formation looks otherworldly. Phenomenal captures with fantastic clarity and colors. VVV

Nice use of the Crystal Ball Sam. I like the way it seems to be floating.

Very cool, Sam! I definitely need to try this with a longer lens. I agree with Glenn that the ball looks like it should not stay in place.

The positioning of the ball looks 'unsupported' but yields such a cool shot.
