I know it is not an original title but it fits.

In New Hampshire they had a natural rock formation called the "old Man in the Mountain." Within the last year it fell victim to water erosion and collapsed. There was talk of putting him back up, but enough sensible people said something along the line of "... but it would no longer be a natural formation..." So they decided to just let nature do her thing...

It has some fuzz along the edge of the rocks because I tried a guassian blur on the sky to alleviate the digital splotches (purple/blue).

Any comments are welcome...

First shot I've seen of the "revised" man. Gives a very different perspective. Glad to hear more sensible heads have prevailed on the reconstruction.
