  • "Frozen Matter 1"<br />
<br />
ORBITAL FIRE - Matter frozen above a striated planet.  If you could float above and beyond, what would you see below?  What paths across the universe would occur as a sentient being contemplates the planetary spheres?  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />

  • "Georgia and Me, Still Life"<br />
<br />
GEORGIA AND ME - Fantasy alive in our shared imagination.  The soft blue and amber tone were unanticipated as I worked through this minuscule marvel.  A surprise on so many levels - yet, ultimately, beyond pleasing as it became enchanting.  What wondrous source enabled this image?  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder.  What do you see?<br />

  • "Boiling Surface"<br />
<br />
GEO-FORMA - Geography and geology in swirls and pauses -- organic and natural.  This is a look and feel that I hope to revisit.  The captured image source is readily available, but the labor of pulling out the hidden image and building the parts means a commitment for another time.  Can I have favorites among my image-children?  Maybe.  I find this short series fascinating.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />

  • "Edge and Grain, Organic Blue"<br />
<br />
EDGE AND GRAIN -- Mother Earth perpetually disguises so many of her wonders.  The humble beginnings of this image began simply enough as a quick shot of an interesting scene.  I never imagined it could become this Organic Blue sketch.  It now appears organic, but its origins are minieral.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />

  • "Sketch in Red with Yellow 1"<br />
<br />
RED WITH YELLOW - Crayon sketches or natural wonder?  This image began as perhaps one of the least impressive in terms of color.  These primary colors emerged wholly on their own with no extra help.  They needed to be seen.  This was no blank slate, but the results were not predetermined.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />
<br />

  • "Garden 2"<br />
<br />
ROSEBUD - A giverny impression.  When I stepped back, it seemed as if Monet had made a visit.  Was this always a garden scene?  No.  When completed, the garden was almost obvious -- at least to me.  Of course, the original image captured looked nothing like the final.  Why "Rosebud?"  That comes from one of the first images created in this series.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />

    a2-DSC_5945-6.JPG
  • "Mistique 2"<br />
<br />
MISTIQUE - or is it Mistyque; or is it Mystique?  Its origin story is unrevealed.  But I will say that shapes and shadows played key roles in its birth and in its the final expression and in its several variations.  The endpoint not too far from the beginning.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder.  What do you see?<br />

  • "Rise 2"<br />
<br />
LIQUID ENERGY - The shifting clouds of life, softly swaying.  Light and airy, even if grounded.  "Liquid Energy," to me, aptly captures the feel of this series.  Soft and flowing, lightly indistinct, vaguely familiar.  No, not clouds at all.  But . . . what?  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />

    a21-DSC_5036.JPG
  • "Explorer 1"<br />
<br />
TIMELINE - The horizon beckons with stony rainbows.  Sparkles lend a slight gleam.  Geology for certain, origin less so.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />
<br />

    a-DSC_9824.JPG
  • "Radiation (Full)"<br />
<br />
RADIANT - Birth from the soul extending through the aura, folded fabric flows free of fancy focus or fickle meaning.  Soft variations for quiet contemplation.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />
<br />
For companion images, visit "Radiant" in FRESH VISIONS - Exceptional Stock Images. A four-part composition is particularly impressive.
    a-DSC_6619.JPG
  • "Evening Slipper"<br />
<br />
ARIZONA NIGHT - Slippers for the night and earliest morn.  Evening walks bring joy and wonder.  The image source would be a surprise, but certainly is not at all scaly.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />
<br />

    az-DSC_4978-c.JPG
  • "Tracks and Trails 1"<br />
<br />
MINERAL BATH - Soaking in the subtly rotund tracks of  molecules.  At one point in the development of this series, I became somewhat infatuated with the eventual outcome.  It is not black and white.  As usual, my goals and expectations were replaced by the end point.  When and how did the circle emerge, and from whence?  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />

    a-DSC_1334-2.JPG
  • "Far Horizon 1"<br />
<br />
GOING WITH THE GRAIN - Gazing toward the beyond with botanical musings.  It truly is a far horizon.  Without revealing much, I will say that the raw material of this image is a favorite of mine.  This series, in particular, required many steps and revisions.  It is a green world, worthy of protection.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder. What do you see?<br />

  • "Cracked Gator 5"<br />
<br />
CRACKED GATOR - Look closely (or not, after all the choice is yours whether to see or not to see).  The fact: Neither gator, nor cracked.  This series particularly required flexibility and patience as I worked through the chosen (and often discarded) paths.  Some images files work more easily than others, but these did not show themselves without greater effort.  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder.  What do you see?<br />

    b-DSC_2511-a3.JPG
  • "Molten Matter 2"<br />
<br />
MOLTEN MATTER - Hot lava on the move or optical illusion?  It sure looks hot and mobile, almost volcanic.  The heat is obvious; the burn palpable, but it did not begin so.  Yet, the movement is undeniable, isn't it?  Beauty left to the discretion of the beholder.  What do you see?<br />
