into the blue

... altho i like this, i do feel i should be pushing myself to do more - then again the season's changing, time to hunt out socks, pyjamas & long sleeved tops, the light is dimming earlier & sun disappearing faster ...

at our course last night we talked lines - we learnt that horizontal lines are said to be calming while vertical lines can be dramatic and disturbing - here is a selection to lead you to a calmly disturbing place ;o)

I'm calmly disturbed ;) This is good - you can't tell whether the turquoise is leaching in from the top of the crack, or whether the crack is leaking turquoise into the space.

[Simply Amanda]

Love the colors!! The blues and rusted cracks are really lovely. Isn't it funny that decay can be so gorgeous!

[Rob Wareham]

I like this too the mix of the rust and the blue running along the cracks is fascinating.

[Lee]

Sharp and detailed with that gritty feel. Good shot.

[Al Bailey]

I like the idea of being calmly disturbed ...... lovely textures and colours on this :)

[Hope D Jennings]

Haha! Love your commentary and this image

[Kim Harper]

Calmly, disturbing - perfect description of this image. The colors and cracks really draw the viewer in.

[Mary Ann]

I like the abstract feel to this. Color, shapes & texture work well together.

[Darinka]

Cool tones for this great abstract image!

[Lisa Stein]

So well seen! Very cool composition, colors and textures!

[Yao RL]

How interesting, from chaotic to clam. So creative.

[Dione Giorgio]

Wow, very interesting.

[Tamzin]

Love the way the blue paint is picked up by the blue of the sea - really striking image (apart from it being lovely to see something other than grey!)

[Josette Buttigieg]

lovely shot.....I love the feeling - calming lines:)

[Linda]

This feels a bit like a disintegrating cliff edge - so more disturbing. But then since I know it isn't, it is calming. Like it lots.

[Taffy]

Intriguing -- both the image and what you said about lines. It has a feeling of the southwest in colors and is disturbing in the disintegration.
