Not for me either Jeremy. It's far too busy.
I also like it Mal, good range textures and tones,
Think it might have worked better had there not been any grass/twigs.....reminds me of those ceramic souvenir plates/ashtrays from years ago
If you rotate,there is a vague resemblance of an elderly gent with glasses,pronounced chin,using a walking stick

I will add another vote to the Likes. As digital art, I do feel that there is a place for stuff like this. Yes it is quite busy, but for me (and I may be way off the mark) it has a kind of klimt like quality to it.
Definitely an interesting post, and shows what can be done with pp/ps to bring qualities and textures out of a photo. I think the colours work well and there is some good detail in the pebbles
I quite like the original version, that would make a fantastic big print
someone call the cleaners. some mess needs clearing
Cheers Amin.
Hmmm
Just goes to prove that photography is very subjective
your image reminds me of some pieces I saw on my favourite blog the other week

bizarrely I like the image on it's side, but I really don't when it's in landscape
i think the image is quite busy, and in landscape I can't see anything that resembles a pattern, but on it's side I start to recognise shapes and I find myself trying to make sense of it
very interesting
Pleased it has prompted a bit discussion
Mal...hold on to your vision, don't let those that can't see it, change it. I'm not knocking anyone's taste, but I've found over the years that it seems most photographers tend to want realism, sometimes tempered with a bit of bokeh. Artists tend to stretch reality into the surreal or simply sublime. I think you took a very ordinary original photograph and turned it into something very interesting. Congratulations.

there you go, exactly what I had been meaning to say but my limited vocabulary just wasn't good enough to spell it out the way hunter just did,
Thank you hunter, I fully second that.
So Mal, let's see some more of that creativity
Bash out some more
Dawn, I wondered when you were going to spot this one

Sometimes she is late spotting but when she does she makes sure the comment covers every single aspect of it , well done Dawn and keep up the good work
