    If you say so!

    It's nice to be in the company of creative genius.

    Exactly!

    edit: Oh, oops! They're both wonderful - the first one has loads of mood - amazing that's it's from blobs on fabric made into a beach bag!

    Stop it at once you are making my ears go red. These have gone outside of 'photography' to a certain extent but I thought they were quite good examples of seeing beyond the immediate visual imprint. Looking at these 2 together it also illustrates the impact of simplicity in an image. The second one draws me far more than the first.

    I agree.

    I was going to write that this is one I could very easily see up on the walls in MacKenzie Mansions, but I thought that would make your ears go red.

    Hi Steve, while I think these are attractive pieces of digital art, I am struggling somewhat with how loosely connected they seem to be with the discipline of photography. Could you post the original image of the beach bag for me to see how you have manipulated it into this image?

    Please don't get me wrong here... I am not criticising you in anyway, I think you are fascinatingly creative. I just want to see what sort of transformation is involved from original to the finished articles we see here.

    Cheers,

    Tommy

    No problem Tommy, I use photography as a means to an end quite often. These examples use photography rather than purport to be photography as an end product. I have never had any qualms about that at all.

    The image above was already half manipulated and I will have to dig out the original from my external drive but you can see the bag in the image below
