WALL•E by darrenboyj

WALL•E

Today I've been messing around with straws of varying colours and was surprised to notice a certain character appearing in one of the creations.

This is actually two versions of the same photo, one placed on top of the other and slightly enlarged for bigger circles. The only other edit I've done is boosted the colour for a neon effect.

Would like this opportunity to thank everyone for their continued support and comments. I've been having some wonderful feedback which helps boost the mood when not particularly feeling creative. It's humbling to have people say that a picture deserves a canvas or place in a book, opinions that I could have only dreamed of - you're all pretty amazing!
I think personally that I've travelled so far already since starting this 365 project - with plenty of paths left to tread. :)

I have under 100 pictures left until the end of my first year, and already have decided to stay around as this will be the second full year of shooting pictures more or less day to day. Truth be told couldn't imagine not having the camera to hand now!!
Mesmerising - a great idea

Colorful straws make a fantastic shot, but overlaying two shots of colorful straws is just so creative and fabulous! Combined with the cool title - definitely a fav!
And you're a great inspiration Darren, and I certainly look forward to your future shots!!

Lovely processing and glad you are going to stay around. Congrats on the PP.
I am nearly half way through and already thinking about whether to carry on afterwards as it has taken up a lot of my time. Then I think, well there is the run up to Christmas and we will be going to Australia for a month so there are lots of different photos to take and maybe we will be going to Europe for a month next year and I would like to share those pictures as well. Looks like I will continue as well!!
