Thats a very cool shot. Normally i would give it a like because that says its cool. This month i post my like for post count. Just looked again and nothing to say just like it.

Thank you. I like playing with wind and waves in PP. Here's an older one

An abstract fabricated with a filter from an image that wasn't quite satisfactory. Easy to tell it started as Autumn leaves, specifically some very red oak leaves.

Here's a different mass of Autumnal oak leaves that either in the original or as here distorted with a filter are almost an assault on your eyes and mind.

Yep...That one does play with my ability to make sense of what I'm seeing...

After I applied the filter, I found the image almost disturbing. I would would momentarily fix on a reasonably clear image of a leaf a bit left of center, then my eye would wander and I would try to make sense of the rest - - no hope. But, for that reason I thought it was interesting.

Oil slicks @ Zoo Lake-probably from the preening of the geese.

I loved the earlier wave abstracts, and these are very nice too.
