I really like the color range ... I agree that it would have been great if that top leaf(?) sticking up had been in the focal plane -- the rest of the blur looks fine to me

I like the interplay of colored threads in textile shots like this. I can crochet (a bit) and I used to do macrame, but I'm lousy at knitting ... :-)

Comment:
This was a great idea and well-executed -- congratulations! :-)

It reminded me of one of my earliest entries when I worked at a print shop and could run off my own "tabloid" ...

I actually like the glassy-eye look, and the way their tails curl around an extra coil.

Mars Landing
by GolferDDS

Comment:
Thanks for posting the "how-to" notes ... the focus-stacking worked very well!

My only "complaints" are that I think the Martian atmosphere *may* be too thin to make a fireball//meteor as you show, and I'd have tried to give the sand a more distinct reddish cast.

Curious how you got/made the sky ...

Congratulations on the ribbon! :-)

Definitely a "Well dang, why didn't I think of that?" image -- congratulations! I like the way the photos look like canvas prints.

Interesting how it's "fluffed up" its head/neck feathers to help with cooling.

Originally posted by primabarbara: I loved both - message and photo - but above all I admire the drawing skills of your daughter.

My reaction too -- I'm in favor of all the positive street art we've been seeing (at least around here), thanks for contributing.

You might consider turning the art into a button or poster ...
