I like this series, Dave, very mysterious, enigmatic words and lovely images. This image may be my favourite so far.
Oh, you like this one? Cool. I worked on it for such a long time today that I reached a point where I could no longer tell whether it was any good or not.
This is one of my favourites – words and image.
Love the way the shadows fall across the
circular patterns.
I like it a lot too.
Yes, very good.
It really is an amazing pattern – like an Aztec sun or shield. Nice choice for the poetry.
Thanks. As you may have intuited, it was made by a leaf, trapped by its stem in an icy layer underneath the powder.
Really? I thought it was a snow version of a crop circle! ;-)
