This is my entry into the recent September Photography Genre Contest - Photo Manipulation. I also thought it would make a neat pre-Halloween image. My thanks to those of you who voted me into 4th place and a big congrats to the other contestants and 1st place winner Elathan. Check out my thumb for the unmanipulated version of this image. My day job will be demanding more of my time for the near future so I regretfully may not get to visit your galleries and comment as much as I would like, but I will be around and am always an email or sitemail away. But if you don't hear back from me right away, that is why. Thank you for visiting! -----

An exquisite composition of the tree with the lightning effect in the background in this splendid creation, Kort! Postwork lives! I believe Laura Ingalls Wilder was into the area of projection with her comment.

I love the figure at the very tip top of the tree, beyond the uppermost fork of the trunk. It sits at the top, as the Lord of the spirits that inhabit this tree!

I like what you have done with it...like a totem pole. But...who has taken over your avatar?????? Halloween is in the air.
