#$%#&*

London Plane reflected in (on?) my kitchen counter

RE: Last Post. The #$%#&* thing still isn't done. I have to believe "everything in its time". Right now I am thoroughly loving playing with my photographs and diddling around in Photoshop.

I love the dingle balls on London plane trees, the bark is amazing and I must admit the big muscular nature is very appealing. I took this picture (below) a while ago and tried a few fibre things out with it that just didn't move me. I loved the perspective but the dilemma was how to make this beauty queen sparkle.And then a spark...Arlee's flickr comment on the 'kitchen counter reflection' (top photo), "This would make one hell of a gorgeous textile art piece!" http://flickr.com/photos/13025462@N08/2387974926/ Unbelievably, I had not been thinking fibre. But how perfect. Thank-you, Thank-you, Arlee!http://arleebarr.squarespace.com/ I asked for a rescue from the clutches of flickr and this may be it! I'm still not out of the water...but I'm being pulled back to the ship.
