Yet another piece that just took over and decided for me how it would look and what it would communicate. I started this off wanting a simple, untextured, possibly lomo-looking piece. I ended up with this..
I’ll leave it up to the viewer to decide what this piece represents, communicates and what exactly is awakened by it.
Taken in Cape Schanck, Victoria Australia, from our holiday house balcony.

Super work Andrew, looks like the bird is coming to say to you – ‘Wow have you seen this wonderful sunset’ Great conversion. Best regards. Bob
Thank you so much Bob! I like your interpretation of it, cheers mate.

Fabulous work my friend. Often I find our images end up differently to how we had seen them initially. This one has just started the song -“Its a New Day” going round and round in my head – and now I cannot get rid of it!!

Haha, I hope it doesn’t stick around all day Anna! Thanks very much my friend. My favourite images are the ones that turn out nothing like I intended. It’s a blur of creation till the finished piece appears :)
