Pattern in Black and White (enlarge)

Antony Long suggested this one would look good in Black and

White, so I thought I would try it. I also have posted the Original

Image that I used for this Abstract (any thought expressed are much

appreciated, Gail :)

...

I like them all: The original, the color and b&w modified ones too.

I think they are both excellent, even I like the original better because there is something lost on the B&W abstract, color and fragility first of all!

Best regards, Gail!

Did I really say that? Just as well you did such a good job with it. They are very different. What does Gail think?

I also love both. I like the detail/textures in the b/w and that all forms have an equal part to play, whereas in the colour the pink forms are the stars with other colours/forms the supporting cast.

What can I suggest next...... split toning ?

Regards

I like this one the best.  I see a mother with a child on each side in the pattern.

Hi Gail

Nice abstract result. Nice symmetrical effect Very well done. Congratulations. Roldao

Great abstract! Reminds me of one I did of a tulip some years back. I'll try an attach it here.

Hi Gail,

  Looks beautiful in b/w also.  I couldn't pick between the two.  Great work as always.  Take care, Patsy

Hi Gail,

Very interesting b&w abstract. Great work and idea!

Best regards, Tina

Somehow the segments of this image give me the impression of  the religious figures one would see in the stained glass windows of a great cathedral.  Great imaginative and innovative work! 

Hope you are feeling better! 

Best Regards

Much appreciation Alf for your visit and thoughts shared. Yes, the shapes in the 4 'arm's of the design do have that kind of appearance. I didn't think of it until you mentioned it.  My shoulder is still causing problems but it isn't slowing me down too much.  I haven't figured out whether to keep using and exercising it, or give it a rest. It bothers me more, the more I do, but I don't want it to stiffen up. Thinking positively that all will be fine :) I was doing pretty good at not walking into things - at least for nearly a year!!    

Many thanks for your visit. I can see your 'Mother and Child', so interesting to hear what others see :)

Mesmerizing image... very effective crop, toning, contrast.

Many thanks Vlad for your visit.  Your encouragement is much appreciated :)

Thank you for visiting, I appreciate very much your encouragement!!
