Challenge 82: Distortion

This might not look like big distortion, but I can prove otherwise:

1. The moon itself. It's been hit by loads of meteors, there's no place with more distortion around us than at the moon.
2. This shot is too bright, so you cannot see the real distortion at the moon. In other words: A distorted distortion...
3. The clouds don't make this picture better. They are responsible for the high brightness and make the whole image look fuzzy and distorted.

This is one of my worst images, but I thought, it's perfect for this challenge. :)

some of my opinion over yours:

1. compares to this earth's surface the moon's is far more original.
2. you can see the earth's distortion everywhere.
3. everyone knows who would take responsibility for that huge distorting the earth's enduring, but they are distorted in one way or another.

(I don't enter into this challenge.)

You are right, but look at diamonds. The industrial diamond is perfect, but the original has more value. Because of the "distortion" inside. Often original stuff is expensive because you cannot copy the structures. The earth's distortion is something different. It's man made, but nevertheless it's a kind of distortion. But: I don't have the possibilities to show the earth's distortion like that one from the moon. Maybe it's possible when they offer travels to the moon...:)

And why you're not entering the challenge? It seems you have been thinking about this topic very long. Go ahead, I bet you will surprise us all!

Thanks for your compliment, but I didn't think of any topics for I'm not used to challenges: they might upset me one way or another.

Anyway I think myself been already a surprise to some here... ;>) and to other some I'm really a challenge too. ;-}

Sounds like a band name to me:

Next song is "Through the clouds" by "Distorted Moon", enjoy! :)
