I don't know how I missed this. Beautiful abstract, I love how you placed the four "magnetic attractors".
Btw looking at the thumb first, I thought it was a cross section of cabbage :).

Scrolling through the challenge results, this one really made me stop and look. Completely baffling. I thought it was water reflecting the trees until I noticed the symmetrical "bubbles." Then I saw the scratches and thought those were an overlay. Finally upon reading your comments the image makes sense. Lovely treatment. A really unique and beautiful abstract.

I have no idea what this is, but it's certainly a reflection and definitely cool looking.

A fine enigmatic image to spend time with. Rorschach would have too.

Be still while the music rises about us -C.A. This abstract relection is something to analyze. You serve the poet well; but will confuse the majority at dpc. Good luck!
