I watched my Spirit rise and fall all week which is why I rarely post a lot of my stuff here. I love abstracts - this shot is just a tidal pool with water making patterns in the sand as it overflows.
However, Posthumous validated my risk taking with his Fantasy Gallery Award and I am honored to have a photograph of mine included. Thank you.

Thank you all for your comments and votes. I truly appreciate the time you took to leave comments.

Everyone wishes for something different when you do something you feel is special. I wish for you to want to do more of these. Wonderful.

Very cool Maggie. The Posthumous is well deserved. I'm actually surprised at the lack of comments about you know what... lol Except tnun hinted that direction. You should always trust your gut and this is proof. Great job!!

What i like about the pic is that it makes me challenge my mind to figure out what it is.. but what i dislike is that it has to much gray its kinda making me look away... The gray is to much for my eyes..

Interesting title.

I wish the composition was different, and/or the foreground was in focus...

Fabulous! Sensual, alive, perfect in black and white! Mother Nature's clefts, oozings, secretions, moanings, flows and private mysteries.......spectacular! Oh yeah..... lolol....granular....that too!....amazing how sand and rock can look so alive! Water always helps!

10+ 1st place.

This looks much nicer in here than in our secret place. Nice job. I'm glad you went with your gut!
