Description Hi everyone! I'm gonna torment you with yet another macro abstract photo from Pellinge (an islet outside Porvoo in Finland) taken last week. I found this strange looking iceformation on a rock in the sunshine and decided to take some snaps of it. It kinda looked like flowing ice, but still being totally stationary. The blue tone added in PS.

Hope you like it. Comments and critiques are welcomed.

Paavo

Well at first glance they might all look a bit too "same". But I still think there are different chracteristics to them all..

torment *grin* If it wasnΒ΄t for so many earlier succesful ones similar to this pic, I might admit that that word would have been the right choise But I find these icy pictures more unique and a bit "personal" than those landscapes like In the end, Far from the sun, The gate, etc. But still I canΒ΄t help but wondering and hoping the next deviations to be different and something new DonΒ΄t get me wrong! These are great pics! But when you get something too much, the taste starts to vanish and all look the same But I really liked these pictures cuz they were like a new start from you, when you go and glance through your first submittings here

CanΒ΄t wait the next "wave of inspiration"!

Solkku In reply to Jefrma [2006-03-24 22:51:44 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, many of the macros I have uploaded recently have had their own characterictics but still different from each other. The blue colour I have added to them might be a reason why they all look the same. But let's be honest.. the blue colours is the only one suitable for ice.

I totally understand you, wanting new stuff, but the winter here is kinda the same all around.. Ice and snow everywhere.

I so agree ItΒ΄s shitty to have like 2-3+ in daytime and at 7pm its 2-, and at night almost 20-
