Description


Today has to be the hottest day here in the UK so far this year... so warm and sticky :-) Luckily for me it coincided with my being able to take a day off work because the workload's so slack at the moment... so this morning went to Bradgate Park (Leicestershire) again, taking my digicam along with me :-) I probably mentioned before that this place has some of the most incredible trees you could hope to find... it's a photographer's dream... anyway, I happened upon this particular arrangement of felled branches and in my twisted way saw distinct erotica here ;-) So I took three landscape-oriented photos, overlapping vertically, then back home I stitched them together in Photoshop... but this was just the beginning... also decided on some colourising, and also took the composite image into Painter to do some smoothing via "grainy water". Now the felled branches resemble skin and flesh :-) Now uploading the image here at 19:10 GMT on Thursday 29th May 2003, feeling happy that I at least did something constructive on my day off... enjoy, and thanks for looking :-D

Beautiful in its own right, yet, it doesn't seem to capture the mood of the blue version...maybe its just me being a nocturnal creature ;) hugs Thanks for sharing, I'm glad you had a day off L

I had a very similar idea and put it into drawing the other day. I do not have your technical ability so I put it on the back-burner. Damn it, you beat me to the punch! Very well done as per usual.

This is very cool. It is kind of funny too, I like the commentary(sick and twisted mind eh ;-) I think I see what You saw. Maybe the year I was born. Obviously You put alot of work into this rendering, and most awesome results. :-)

Well spent day-off. Me too like this one the best. It has a more erotic touch than the blue one, more real flesh :-) This idea is creative and cool and funny, love your imagination!

I'm a tree freak myself, and I definitely see the sensuality they have in their forms....why just outside theirs an orgy going on in the pepper tree. Excellent!

Oh wow, Jim! I love love love love love it! My favorite part is the root that trails off into the shadows in the foreground - but the whole thing is just stunning. Yayyyy! Now I'm off to see the other.

Indeed a wonderful example of modern surrealism. Atmosphere with something magic, and awesome colours, but the greatest part was your imagination. :-)

This is a simple good idea well realized. Very good... you could use also some anatomic part for doing it more "fleshy"... I love simple great ideas.
