As I looked at Jay’s “Crystal Ball” I thought, can He tell the future with that thing..?  Could Jay be able to see if the waves are going to be good today ? That would be priceless !  I began to start thinking about what I wanted to play. Thinking about this beautiful orb brought me to the idea of the ball we all live on, Earth. I have this old globe that I used in grade school, and it was old back then. I used a slight low angle for my viewpoint and used a slight telephoto lens so as to not distort the globe. I adjusted the color a bit on the image from the original shot.  Playing one color off the other until it felt right. While looking at the globe I could see that several of the names of countries had changed since grade school along with quite a few boundary lines. Who can tell what this ball that we all call home will look like in another 50 years.
