Description

Playing around in Photoshop tonight. The source photo was taken at the edge of a plateau at Edale (Derbyshire, England) where you can see a scattering of smoothly eroded rocks with interesting shapes... Way back in my gallery there are a series of photos taken in 2001-2002: 1 : 2 : 3 : 4 : 5 : 6 Thanks again for taking a look and your thoughts are always appreciated :-)

Hey Jim, This one is very apealing to me. I love your original photos 2 & 6 are my most favorite. Thanks =) I want to go visit the place where you took those pictures. It looks like a place lost in time. Very cool

You should have let us discover the nature of this ourselves :-) I'm always fascinated by how much people notice not-so-obvious elements in an image like this. This is so strong that we might not have thought of looking at it sidesways for some time! Inevitably, we'll see an intimidating "creature". Fascinating psychological experiment!

Fantastic totem. I am a fan of totems,and, in fact, just finished one of my own to be posted later. It is great fun. Thanks for the links of Moore Rock. All very interesting and great scuptures in themselves. Excellent artwork Jim.
