Nocturne

Models from ikebana#14 'Moon Behind Cloud Wisp'. I have made a mini arrangement here as well. The leaves at the bottom turnout better than expected. I have also experimented with the GE display system color presets with this image which is posted in photoart. May be the positive, negative and color version will make a nice triptych??

Positive version available (click view larger photo)

This is very nice Gary, love it. I think the + - and color version would make an awesome triptych..
You never cease to amaze me :wavey:

Gary, this negative view is fabulous. Superbly arranged and executed. Double kudos. I have only one nit, and its that your name/copyright is a little too prominent and, I think, detracts or interferes a little with the image. However, i just scroll down a tiny bit and that little issue is solved. :wink:

You stepped up the level of your work again, Gary. Nice arrangement of flowers. I like the blue feel of this version over the other 2 versions. Well done :toast:

Your work is outstanding, and instantly recognisable, the Yeohist technique/school. I'd love to see a 3D version. :smile: :wink:

Your composition is really nice, the flowers along the bottom suggest a movement of "dance" is going on. One can follow and see you have fine tuned the radiograph technique. Both interesting and pleasing to the viewers eye.

Beautiful. I'm not sure which I like best so a triptych is the perfect answer. Wonderful arrangement. You blow me away

Very nice. The negative version gives the impression of the elements being underwater -- a good thing.

Very appropriate title Gary. Also a very nice arrangement. Don't know how difficult it would be to get a suitable arrangemnt and then x-ray it. Probably similar to scanning I would imagine.

Definitely a triptych. I do like this version best, but all 3 work on different levels.

LOVE the positive version in the larger image view, Gary! Spectacular. Inspiring the way you continue to push the envelope to create new and intriguing processing.

Gary: I am completely conflicted about a favorite. Magnificent work and if arm twisted I would pick the negative. Very well done.>=))>
