Untitled abstract

Jocasta @jocasta challenged me to make an abstract image. I had/have an idea I want to try, but haven't had time. So I played around with several copies of a cropped photo of shadows cast on the sidewalk by the trees overhead (fairly abstract in and of itself). Inspired by Krista Marson's explanation of what she did to get this image: http://365project.org/blueberry1222/365/2014-07-01 I layered four of the similar, but slightly different crops of the same photo, all of them with different hue, contrast etc and then used the eraser brush to make round holes in the various layers revealing the one beneath. It was fun to do. If I had the time, I'd play with it more.
@jocasta Here is an abstract for you. What do you think?

@tstb Thanks, Tineke. That sounds like a good challenge. I need some speed -- hot weather has been slowing me down! LOL
