...then what do you see?

Well, in the last two shots I see that they are either a computer or think like one as I see a computer interface when I stare at the eye. The first two remind me of a stargate from the TV shows. They also remind me of black holes where nothing ever returns from.

My eye revisited:


This time, ISO 100 1/60s F/32, and a really big flash! (a.k.a. 580 EX II)

Somehow I managed to not blind myself... I wasn't even seeing spots! But you know there's quite a bit of energy coming out of a flash when you can feel heat on your face when the flash goes off!!! This thing eats batteries so fast that I think I'll need a set of rechargeable AAs & charger. The booklet says 100-700 flashes from standard AAs.

I think I read somewhere that the pokey rechargables, like NiCd, work well in flashes and other sudden-but-brief load applications, whereas alkalines are better for more constant drain.
