Re: Portrait of a Shell
Beautiful colours. I'm also intrigued if it may look better rotated 180 degrees, but I think that maybe due to my right-left, top-bottom western eyes.

Re: Portrait of a Shell
neat shot. lots of detail packed in there. If you rotated this your name/copyright would have to be moved back to bottom.

Thanks Wavelength.
James and Kaye, I'll try rotating the image and see if I like it better.

Re: Portrait of a Shell
Karm -- in one of my researches yesterday about templates, I came across this kind of illustration in fine lines. There is a mathematical angle to this. I tried finding the article now but it is taking me a long time so I will just give up. To sum it up from memory, when you rotate your image, the bottom area that is in line with your name at the bottom, between the R and M...rotate it that way towards the bottom left hand corner and see how you go. Experiment until you find the right corner from there to intersect at the bottom left hand corner. The way to imagine this is to for you to stand straight thinking that your back is at the corner of a room and then open your arms imagining your shot of the shell... Well..that is what I'd do anyway to get it right...
