Beautiful shot man... but damn that's creepy!

Fantastic.
It looks like smthcriminal29's statement about lack of light pollution out there is true. I recently saw the daytime now/then areal shots of the front gate & station - whoa - what a difference.

Perfect framing, perfect lighting.

What Dania just said. Stunning, man. Even if one does not appreciate the context of the image, the image itself is breathtaking - literally.

Thank you all. The end intent is the art -- something that I'm sure MJ understands -- and I'm glad everyone enjoyed this image.

I thought this is quite surreal. Looked as if it's a setup inside a huge studio. Grand entrance with all the lovely trimmings and a great shot.

Why has he got a UK royal coat of arms on his front gate?

That's what I thought too when I saw the coat of arms. It isn't really appropriate for him to display the coat of arms.

Seen in your Neverland set. (?)

He has insulted the Queen!!! I say, these pop starts are completely mad cap. A coat of arms on the gate, we must do something at once Morgan.
so ..why DOES he have it? Come to think of it why does he have a Farris Wheel and a brass telegraph machine? Why can't he just live in a 10 x 12 drywall cube with aluminum framed walls and go to starbucks for fun like everyone else ..hey ..why does Starbucks have a topless mermaid with her legs spread on their cups!!! My god the world has gone mad...someone find a cube .we must get inside!!
