I don't know what makes me like no 1. There is enough interesting image here for a doctorial thesis. You are hell on persistance, like a mosaic executed of bits of colored glass. Even more thought and imagery. Bill

Yowsers! One-three-two. One keeps my attention best. Three the colors play best. Two breaks in half, 'cos of the cast shadow. Looks like a treMENDous amount of thought, and work. EXcellent!

Hmmm... I kind of liked the colors of the leaves when you first scanned them. Now they just seem to blend into the chaos. But then again, that may have been your intention. (*

Just a reminder that the three posts are not separate things. The close ps are only meant to be just that, close ups of certain areas. Only one thing will get printed, and that's the first one, which will be printed at about 2.5 x 3.5-4 feet. The document is in 600ppi, wieghs in at now almost over the 500 meg mark I beliive (though i didnt check at the last save), has about 40 layers or so in total (all the leaves conform into one layer now), and when its done, will represent 60-70 hours of my life which I ain't getting back.

could this be considered "Photography"? After all, nothing ever touched a 3D prrogram, and everything waws either scanned (scanography?), or were photos that were scanned, aside from some minor drawing (such as the bug's legs), but heck, you proper pencils and water colours, one can draw on photographic prints. Is this "Photography"? I'm just curious is all.
