Lighthouse Planet

This is the same lighthouse as in my previous post only I have distorted it into a sphere. It's a fun technique that I recently found on the web. I've been wanting to try it and the lighthouse seemed a good subject. Mostly it's a Photoshop trick using the filter Polar Coordinates to curve the photo around on itself. Then it's just some digital cleanup.

Lighthouses always seem so sad and lonely. I can imagine this lighthouse being far away from every other planet and manned by a lone person dedicated to keeping the skies safe. If you look really closely at it, or in the original, you will see that the person is Linda's sister Sharon. Can you find her?

There are a whole bunch of these on Flickr - although this is my only one.
