Dum spiro spero

I kinda like it. It looks, to me, like a photo that's on the way to something good, but somehow it is missing out a bit on the storyline. I mean, the woman looks so free and unencumbered, her reflection and the water all around her support that, but then there's a straight line across the picture, above her head, and things are darker and in a different world there. That line stands out a lot more than I wish it would stand out, and I also somehow am not getting the connection between the top and the bottom part. I have to say though, any picture that makes you wonder, and think, is good.

Nice work. I like that flower, it would be a great flower to experiment doing abstract with (or, with which to experiment doing abstract, for the purists).

Good, I'm proud of you! :) [totally teasing about that "dark side" stuff]

Reading Jutilda's comment below, I wanted to add, "straight out of a European vacation scrapbook kinda wet on the left side from the water running out of the picture onto the pages of the book." Oh well. I like the picture, and how it looks with the texture, but man, that horizon line is tilted! Anyway. Ursula, go away now!

Oh, no, I thought you'd joined the Dark Side! I'm crushed. :) A good night's sleep will do this to people, get them all cheerful and wonderfully upbeat. Maybe people should be prevented from sleeping too much when they're in a bad mood, or else they go pretty on us, hmmmmm.

This looks good though.

Welcome to the Dark Side!

This is beautiful. This gets me thinking about the possibility for another picture, where you have a top part of trees like you have here, maybe even darker and more gloomy/dreadful, and a similar size bottom part with roots, a sort of "reflection" of what's up in the air, but underground. I'm going to try something like that. Gotta get myself a good gloomy picture of trees, which shouldn't be hard this time of year ...

:)

Added: I hope you don't mind me taking your idea and extending it for a picture for myself.

That's a really good idea, the way you used the Vered texture as frames for the mosaic pieces. Very creative use of a texture. Nice.
