That looks painted on my small screen. Need to see it on a large one. Nice.

I prefer the colour version but this is still lovely. One of the things I like about it is that it looks like random, indistinct paint strokes on a casual look. Still nice for that but then I went back to look again and could see detail and it's clean and sharp. It was only by studying the detail that I worked out what I was looking at and then the whole picture switched in my head giving me a whole new payoff.

I must say that is one of my very fave genres (found abstracts).

And you rock the genre

What rizole said. On a bigger screen, the juxtapositions of big dramatic sky and broad expanse of water with that little strip of land with so much detail . . . Nice one (And 2014, noted )

How thoughtful of the birds to arrange themselves just so! A white swan in the center surrounded by black ducks - beautiful serene scene

Wow, that’s a powerful image Carlos. And I hate to say it, but it’s got a hint of brown in it. Sorry, but could you make it black and white and repost. I would not want to lose this from the challenge.

Thanks for that!! And yes, I too prefer the color version.
