20090304 - The Tube

Had no idea what to do for a piccy tonight, so sat down to watch some telly. Then I saw a cardboard tube....

So this is the tube through a tube. Yes, my telly is still a tube - and is still 4:3 ratio :)

Desperate, eh!?

Almost a 007 opening title ;) Nice picture.

Magnificent abstract. Well executed.

I'm a big fan of this shot, Phillip. Wormhole came to mind first; that's a lot better than stupid cardboard tube. Great effect!

It's just missing your silhouette, or is that tomorrow's set up?

I think I saw this episode of Star Trek... At least your tube is color.

Looks like keyhole surgery on an oesophagus :-)

Malcolm had the same thought as me !

Is there a Bond film on?

And from the thumbnail I thought it was an astronomical image. Very innovative work and great result.

Run to the light... ;-)

Are you sure it's not a wormhole? Perfect abstract.

It's not a very interesting programme, can you change channels please?!! :)
Kevin Chester04-Mar-2009 20:35
Well seen, and the usual perfect lighting. Hope it wasn't a toilet roll tube ;O)
