''Orbits Of Life''

Tried a little different File Save Configuration on this image, lowerpixel count but larger size.

This level of detail is difficult to retain through the postingprocess on p.net. &nbsp Some saturation was lost, but that seems to bethe only significant loss.

Comments/critiques/suggestions are most welcome.

Thanks for having a look...

100/100 for the frame, truly excellent work.....

The frame is the only `peaceful' element in this image... the rest is very busy...

But, the image represents the myriad paths we follow during the course of our lives, some far-flung, most near home-base.

Thanks for your visit and kind words.

Not only is the frame terrific but also the image and then I read the first comment and saw that someone else likes the frame also. I presume - all done with PS as opposed to a purchased action. Dave - you are the point with your graphics that no one else that i see is in your league. This genre of image is not for everyone but i sure appreciate the aesthetics and creativity. You should be printing and exhibiting in a place where people will like it even though I suspect you won't make a million dollars. Now back to the frame - I see filter/texture and I will try and figure out the rest.

I totally agree with Tony on all counts Dave!! and re Frame...and you know how I love those....fantastic work...kudos Dave......sincerely, Gail

I have always felt that, when presenting an image, a frame was the final finishing touch. &nbsp However, many, here on p.net do not seem to see things that way.

The frame was done by adding borders and then shading or adding texture.
