North Cape aka Nordkapp, Norway. This is the northernmost point of Europe reachable by car through mainland.

I like it a lot. The vignette effect brings the eye to the globe and the ghostly silhouettes are perfect for a land's end photo!

It's delightful. The contrast between the sharpness of the Sphere and the fuzziness of the "Ghosts" is just fine.

Yes, it is a very nice picture. However, have you realised that without the logo on the right, it would be out of balence?

(I must state that I mean out of my personal idea of balance, and not anybody else's idea about balance and perfect equilibrium.)
