Natural shapes

You, yes you, what's the first thing this pops to your mind? Would you

care writing it here?

 

The most interesting aspect of shooting a natural abstract, to me, is

to hear what people see in it.

 

Your comments are very much appreciated.

From a Jungian standpoint, I think it is vaginal looking. (there, I said it:)

 

From a photographic standpoint, I would like it better if it were razor sharp to bring out the textures better, which it doesn't quite look to me, at least on this monitor. I like the colours.

 

It is a good work.

It looks like an opened wound, brings up a feeling of pain, overall depresing. Good picture, though :)

I looks like an animal's head with large ears. Sharpness seems to be a problem, and I would have removed (or cloned) the small white spots.) I like the color and composition, though.

Thanks for your comments. I just realised that I have updated a heavily resized image prior to USM. I will correct this tonight.

Nice composition and good colors... Regards.

Its an image from a spy satelite, and Bin Laden is hiding in that cave!

Fine, I tried to sharpen it a bit more, but being just a tiny fraction of a large landscape did not make it very far. I also removed the white stones...

 

...too bad this had little following, I was on the point of posting the full frame but maybe I better wait a bit in case someone else should stop by.

Was this taken using a tripod or is this a very small piece of the full frame? The pixels seem to be deviating from the original quite a bit.

 

In terms of the abstract nature, it has certainly worked well with the natural lines and the shades of colors. As you can tell, there are many wild imaginations out there.

A very intresting subject to work on "textures and abstracts" theme, but definetly needs work on the sharppening issue, to make it very "crispy". You should try different ratios, it deserves a little time to experiment, you could come out with a much more interesting image.

Being a geologist I find it hard to see this abstractly (and I'm crying out for something to show scale), if I can look at it abstractly I see "laceration" (bleeding wound).
