incredible detail on those lions!!! Amazing to see all that detail on her tongue!! i think enjoy abstract photography the most. Why? 1) it's a challenge for me 'cause i really have to look harder than shooting what's right there in front of me begging for attention. 2) it's such a joy to find and showing something different. 3) it makes me appreciate the mundane more 'cause i stop seeing the mundane as mundane!!! LOL!! 4) when i can make an abstract image, it's like finding a treasure!!! :) i guess that's why i find it the most rewarding! :) interesting thread, Jim. Thanks for sharing!! :)
