''Monument On Io''

Created for visual appeal and based on my long interest andinvolvement in astronomy.

A touch of science, a bit of art and a lot of help from technology.

I hope that you enjoy my efforts and that you will provide a commentor critique.

Thank you for stopping by...

Great shot!! As soon as I had a glimpse of it .......right away I thought of the 'sound room' we had in the basement of our home on 'Scugog Island' Port Perry ,Ontario...plus my son was here for his 30th Bday supper last nite..but when he was 16, we moved to this house, and it also had a 'mixing' room just outside of the Sound Room....so teenagers with drums, electric guitars.....microphones....streamed into our home......have you seen that old commercial for Bose...speakers?? where the man is sitting in a chair....and they crank the tunes, and his hair and face are being stretched out behind him due to the 'volume'???

 

Well this certainly speaks volumes to me....the image reminds me so much of thier speakers, and equalizers.........what started out as "dreadful noise" blossomed into a great band....but I shall never forget going into the basement...the room had two double PADDED doors....the (20x20) room was padded at least six inches thick......I opened the first door and was 'blown away'....when I opened the second........."I was in the Bose commercial!!!". I could not believe the volume!!!!! the ones that weren't playing were sitting on the floor with their fingers 'stuck in their ears'..........this image is so FULL OF THAT FEELING!!! I actually miss those days......The didn't play realy hard rock, loved Zepplin, Robert Plant....(the stuff we grew up on)....but played a lot of laid back....."Mustang Sally, You Sexy Thing, Let's get it on, You Can Leave Your Hat On....)...POWERFUL IMAGE..........POWERFUL COLORS....POWERFUL FEELING....congrats...very good work!!!!!

I like this superbly worked out series, a great addition here and so pleasant Art to view, wishing you all of the best my friend.

Very nice work! Cheers!
