An Enchanted Swamp

Amazing fabulous enchanted swamp, Michael! A wonderful frame, color combination, mood ... Well done, Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana

Superb colours and composition, another very good abstract. Best regards Ken.

Tatiana, Ken - - Thanks you both for your kind words and your continued support.

Fantastic!!!! AJ

Enchanted indeed!!! Something right out of Disney or Pixar!! Great effect!

Hello Michael: You have such a special skill, an unfathomable sense of imagination and perception, that I venture to guess that you had this image in your mind when you took the image, only to bring it back to your "darkroom" and perform your magic. Striking, creative, original, fresh and different. You regaled us all with this teasing (provocative). With this image, you are 30,000 feet above impressionism, taking it to, errrr, another level. A work of art indeed, as it hints at a photograph, but to the untrained eye, it is also a delightful painting. DG

Many thanks, Tatiana. Admittedly I pictured myself wandering in this swamp and shooting photos. - - My best, michael

Thanks, Ken, for your kind words and continuing support. - - My best, michael

Thanks, AJ! - - mhl

Thanks, Warren. The difference between me and Disney/Pixar is that this image started as a realistic photo of an area in the Big Cypress Preserve.

Daniel, your remarks are exceedingly generous, to the point that I'm not sure that I deserve them. But, I accept them gratefully. I have a small confession; when I shot this photograph I wasn't entertaining a thought that I was going to abstract it. I'm glad I did, though. My best always, michael
