When Ahab Returned from the Sea

very nice presentation, image and frame work in a unified manner...regards....David

The totality is excellent. Color, light, and the composition all are very dramaticly presented. Like it.

First of all my favorite comination of colors, for drama; are red, black, and white so that part of the image succeeds very well for me and secondly the object it's self comes alive with your treatment and the quote, it's definitely staring at us with it's scarred visage and has a story of it's own to tell.

indeed, very interesting treamment. it make a fine art to a real photograph not just mere to recorded the outside reality. congrats. have a nice weekend.

Very strong and original composition.

The photography is a mixture of culture and fine arts, who modestly practice it enhances his spirit. This image is a good example. Congratulations. Vicente.

A very original piece of work jo. Well done

Excellent document.Regards,

This is a tour de force, an impressive demonstration of mastery of varied dimensions of the craft (and a wonderful image as well!)

Joseph, the commentary you gave about Ahab makes this image "sing" for me. I love the effects you used to add punch to it. Amazing. Regards, liz

Fantastic! Happy New Year! Regards Andrea

Thanks for your kind and thoughtful comments. I appreciate them very much.

Very creative.

A fine piece of art! Well done! Take care

I love what you've done here! I'm not sure you haven't been holding out on us, Joe! ^_^ Seriously, this is an unexpectedly delightful image to explore with the eye... you've combined many excellent ideas, excellently executed. From my vantage point your experiment(s) are a smashing success! Warm regards, David.

Impressive rendering. Besides the skull fracture, your framing conveys the impression that the "face" is trying not to collapse.

New Style I like it. Nice colours. Well done

Best Regards

I thought of the Ents from Lord of the Rings. This looks like a tree spirit and human spirit are superimposed. Very nice.
