stunning triptych, Lori! Each image itself is wonderful, but together = fine art!

I see a lot of things, though a thorough psychoanalysis may be in order!

Looks like abstracts when presented this way. Very cool!

Oh wow. These are each incredible in their own right. I really just see abstract patterns (which is why I'd be a poor candidate for Rorschach tests) and they're beautiful in their own right.

"I really just see abstract patterns (which is why I'd be a poor candidate for Rorschach tests)..."

Which is also one reason you're such a great photographer, Guy!

Wow this is awesome Lori!!!
I flipped this 90' to the left and it becomes less abstract but still looks great. As presented it's a totally spellbinding abstract that I could study for quite awhile without losing interest. I would really like to see it larger. Excellent work.

Immediately, my first reaction is that the color just blows me away. I would love to see these posted individually as well as in the triptych. This is really beautiful Lori, and very creative.

Nice idea Lori, I don't think I've ever seen anything like this. After looking at this image for a minute I noticed a coyote in the last image just above the yellow tree in the middle, you can make out a nose, snout, eyes, and even ears! That is incredible! I can't believe nobody has noticed this

This is perhaps one of the most interesting posts in the whole year. What a great combination of concept and execution.

Happy New Year, Lori. Look forward to seeing more of your beautiful art in 2011.

I think I need a therapist, too! Beautiful full sized.

But my Rorschach test sees more in the thumbnail...It looks like is depiction of Easter Resurrection! Splendor in nature captured perfectly. Needs to be hanging in a fine art gallery!

Nice autumn images all of them! I think it works amazingly well as a triptych.

What a wonderful triptych Lori. Very original and thought provoking. I definitely see a gerbil in the first, a bear in the middle image, and a cat in the third.

Oh, that is so fun. Gorgeous too. Love the way the colors and textures attract me and then the way the images pull me in for closer inspection.
