I wanted to do a few more of your images before the year ends. When I first saw this, I thought it was filtered. After reading you---and seeing your next upload---I realized this was not the filtered version. Or, perhaps better said, it's with your usual styles of postwork, not 'filtered' per se, just emphasized, coaxed, penetrated, etc. It's stunning. The pebbles on the bottom become 'scales' on a glass surface. The shadow---yours---becomes one of those patterns on the glass. And the contrast of dark sections with the brighter ones makes a fine abstract in itself. And you got a grainy feel to the pebble part, making it very graphic, almost etched. And the patterns on your shadow are like thick curved glass reflecting light, as only thick curved glass does. A wonderful job. (When I saw this, I thought of one of the only photomanipulations I've done in some weeks ((which I posted when I returned here, a few days ago)); and I thought about how much manipulation I go through. I started digital doing photomanipulations for other artists; that's how I learned photoshop; and I applied my experience with abstract painting to it. It's been a delicate balance, and I always grapple with it. And it struck me that you do pieces like this without photomanipulation, per se, but rather with your usual treatment of photography---ie, the labor and attention you give to every photograph. Your eye finds these patterns and lights, and you let your eye tell you what to do with them, where and how. It's quite striking.)
