RE: PESO - Water Warp
Hmmm ... at first I really liked the photo, then I thought the colors were really dull and uninteresting, then, the more I looked the more I disliked the patterns. So, I'm ambivalent about it, even though at one moment I like it quite a bit and at another I just makes me nauseous. It certainly drew me in and got me involved. I do applaud your trying something different.

Thanks for the compliment there! :-) Take some Pepto-Bismol and go to bed. I sort of see it as something that could be big and viewed from a distance.

Re: PESO - Water Warp
Hi Tom, I like it for this reasons: 1. The composition. I think it's nicely laid out. If this as framed, I'm thoroughly impressed. :-) 2. The concentric patterns in the light parts. Every time I've tried, getting nice patterns in this part has been difficult. 3. It is very natural. There are some particles in the water surface, but they do not distract. The leftmost light pattern disturbs me a little because it is out of focus.

Of course it is. :-) However, the patterns look cooler in this orientation, imo.

Basically I like it, but I think the composition isn't quite what it could be. Those silvery sections end up being long sections that sort of run out of the frame too much. i.e. the eye goes out of the frame too much -- doesn't return enough. This would have worked better as a vertical, Tom, in my humble opinion. If you try it again you might try it that way and see what you think.

Thanks Frank. :-) I specifically "de-rotated" it to the displayed orientation based on my sense of asthetics. Somehow I found it less appealing when made a vertical composition.
