Wrecked Red Car Reflected on a Wrecked Black Car

What a wild and splashy flower or butterfly. And when examined closely the center of it appears to be a fantastic creature. This is a cunning, intriguing image, rife with transformation and innuendo. A terrific addition to your series.

Mar 21 - Season change

I love the supporting bokeh. Also the depth of focus on the forward branch, picking out a bud or two. So hard to catch the first moment of spring. Henry Thoreau wrote in Walden Pond that he always tried to spot it but, when he noticed a candidate, it was already developing.

The deep background bokeh is pretty. This image is an homage to spring, and all that is bright and fresh.

Self Portrait

Fine artistry drawn from a phone camera. I'm so out of the loop. The colors are a bouquet of pastels. Your fingers are beautifully shaded and sculptural. Please take no offense -- they look like a line of platypuses. Lovely, amazing what you've done.

Strong image and felicitous match with the line from the poem. The gazes are complex, replete with reflecting sunglasses and an intervening mirror or something. The open door or, again, whatever introduces a mysterious note that brings the drama up a notch. Works well in b&w. I'm enjoying the depth of mood and emotion.

Spring Fashion

It's understandable that you, in your efforts to fulfill a difficult theme, might have mixed emotions about red for the time being. We, however, are having a great experience seeing the impressive results of your quest.
So here's another very fine image, rich and charismatic. The chosen field of view, and consequent composition, feel perfect. She's a warrior who's come through battles and now, with aplomb, dons a bewitching, assertive red red dress. The background hanging extends the overall scheme with its more muted red peonies, or whatever. Even her make-up sends out faint ripples.
I selfishly look forward to more images in your series.

Crumpled Car Abstract
by jomari

Comment:
Another fine abstract. Being five, six feet from the screen helps the abstractness for me; close up it looks like fanciful terrain, mountains and ridges upthrust from a windswept plain, or an archipelago. Lovely colors in in bold, fruitful contrast. How serendipitous that cars in their throes bequeath us such art, which needs an eye like yours to be realized. Thank you for guiding us on this tour.

Mar 19 - Safe place

The vegetation presents a nice, random pattern in which to modestly place a bird. I'm glad to see you celebrate this English sparrow, often disparaged as common or a displacer of native birds but, in my opinion, plucky, cheerful and handsome. If it had been more obviously showcased it wouldn't have the half-hidden charm this one does. Fine image.

I like this one better. The tender mood you've shown so well is compromised, in my opinion, by the water overlay in the other shot. That extra processing draws attention away from Paxton. I think the lighting is somewhat bright, but that's just personal taste.
