2014/2013 abstract Surf and Turf

While working on this Abstract composition, I arrived at a point where

the image reminded me of a colorful Crustacean (everyone will see

something different). I moved a step forward and the image got a

little scary, so I stepped back and stayed with this one. (any visits

and comments are always welcomed, thanks in advance for your

consideration, Gail)

Hi Gail,

I most certainly see the crustacean reference! However, what really strikes me with this is the sense of depth! It has a strong 3D impression, even on my decidedly 2D laptop! Fabulous!

Tim

Really beautiful creative work, Gail!

 

it's like knowing what inspired the dream.

 

the processed version is strong. did you keep the scary version? best, j

All the time I am curious about the original if you show us,is interesting to see from what you start and result,lot of work and for sure your original style,my compliments.Have a nice weekend Gail.

Hi Gail,

  Beautiful creative image with wonderful design & colors.  Take care, Patsy

Hi Gail,

A female ALIEN comes to mind.

A wonderful work accomplishment.

Warmest Regards, Mike

 

I imagine a Crustacean also, my friend  ... like the original shot also. Big hug ...

Excellent work! (6)

I'm not really into Abstract , but I can see what you are trying to say with this one . I must delve into the Filter menu and see what I can come up with ! Bill

Hi Babe !

If I say "The dragon", it is a cliche. Isn't it ? (however...)

Thus I see the leader (why always leaders have to obtain the honors ?!).

 

Rephrase:

Thus I see an arthropod. (I love Scorpions, don't you ?!)

 

Congrats Gail !

 

I too enjoyed seeing the original. What a transformation - from flower to animal. There are parts of the "body" that you can see through which makes it really interesting - almost like a dissection or some very strange life form.

Fun work.

Dave

nice work Gail...the color and light really make this "pop"...regards....David

A strange animal full of life...!!!

Wow! This interesting flower has produced ominous "thorns". "Look but don't touch" is the watchword here!! Seriously, a very nice abstract creation from the original. Well done!

Intriguing picture. Great colors and symmetric beauty...and yet, it seems, it's alive! And with big pointed fangs, too!

Very unique and colorful synthesis Gail!  Sky's the limit for your imagination and your creativity output!  Cheers!

A very creative image indeed,and with what wonderful colours Gail. it has that real 3D feel and look to it... all the best Grant

Outstanding transformation! From fragile spring beauty, to some think that looks like macro of insect! 

Delightful!!

Thank you friends for your visits and input, truly appreciate hearing what you thought about this composition!!!

I probably have the 'scarier' version among the Edits file, but sometimes I DELETE them. I don't even like to "CREEP" myself out!!! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts Jamie!!

Many thanks for your enthusiastic input Tim!!! I have some updates to do on my laptop so I have not seen this image on it yet. It would probably fill the screen and really 'pop' out at me!! Many thanks Tim for your visit!!! Always great to hear what you think of my images.

Thank you each for your visits and own personal thoughts on this composition. From the start I never know what I might end up with!!
