Nathan, you've recreated the entire spectrum in jewel tones. I like the bottom being in the warm hues and the top in the cooler ones...almost as if the jewel has been created in the flames. The main gem itself seems to have it's own inner fire...no doubt the result of being fire-born. There must be something special about this gem, too, because the very air around it is glowing.

(Good grief! Am I waxing poetic, or what?! Quick! Somebody stop her before it's too late!)

Man Nathan! This is spectacular.I love everything about this, the colors, the gold frame, the jewel,and the individual fractuals inlaid in it. Awesome job my friend!..=)

This looks great! I do like your style very much! Nice golden frame also!

Wonderful combination of a gem and frames, and the color is spectacular.... i sure would like to know how you make your frames.

Hi Nathan my friend! Very nice!
Just be well while you are away and busy!

I've long since run out of superlatives for your work; it leaves me speechless. Keep it up, please!

An explosion of color-that's what it is, fractal fireworks. Luv that frame. Everything is expertly blended. I like the sneaky suggestion of some kind of living forms buried in the colors. Is it alive or about to be? That is the question. A ten for your efforts.

Nathan, you did this in a "few minutes"? Just amazing. It's in my favorites.

WOWWW... this is gorgeous love the colour, the jewel, the fractal.. and the frame all compliment each other perfectly... great work Nathan

You have so much nice work. This is also very beautiful. I love the color combos you use and the fluidity. Very talented I'm afraid!!

Whoa! Great job!

Nathan what you can do in ' a few minutes' is amazing...what a rich glowing palette of color and energy...spectacular...thanks for sharing your time and beautiful art.:Pat.

"Got a few minutes this evening to play around with color and fractals" - well, if I could do something like this in a few minutes...
It's just beautiful, and I hope you can spare now and then some minutes again!

Hot and cold all in one Nathan!! Super job on the colors and how they blend from hot to cold!! The frame is awesome!!

Hi Nathan! I think that the whole picture looks like some sort of magnificent gem! So very beautiful. I wish they would make fabric that looks like this!

Hi Nathan, I simply can't find the proper words to convey to you the awesomeness beauty of this image! I see in this image, an incredible display of splendid, creative art work! Let me put it another way, because I do not engage in this type of artistry, as you well know, I find my critiqing of the image to be inadiquate, ineffective! Let me suffice it to say, it may be the most sophistocated, majestic image of yours I have seen! The colors, which I love so much create a ' flame' in my heart! A little play on words here! Smiling! I will put this in my favs with the greatest of pleasure! Sincerely, Marilyn

Beautiful!

I love it when you play! Absolutely gorgeous and I'd buy a frame just like that in a heartbeat. Thanks for sharing, Nathan.

Gorgeous!!!!!! Gorgeous!!!!!!! Gorgeous!!!!!!

All I can say Nathan is WOW!!!!!!!!!! this is cool. one of my favs for sure.

Fascinating, all there is to see and look at in this magnificent image! Yet another master piece ;-))

Beautiful fractal! I really like all the color in it.

nice love the background

Thank you, my friends. I really appreciate your comments.

Sometimes the scores bother even me! How can this incredible design receive such a low score? I really thinks this is one is so spectacularly good it deserves not but the highest vote. Nathan you have my 10!
Into my favourites!

GORGEOUS AS EVER :) SOME OF THE ONES IN THIS STYLE/FORMAT MAKE ME WANT THEM IN A PLACEMAT, LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING I'D SEE AT A FANCY HIGH END STORE TO MAKE A GLAMOROUS TABLE SETTING THAT WOULD KNOCK THE DINNER GUESTS SOCKS OFF! BEAUTIFUL!

Thank you!

Like the commentary's before mine, I'm very impressed by this beautiful image, I fear I lack words to express my feelings. So I'll stick to what I've done with this image. It has been on my desktop for a good 8 months now and many collegues have appreciated it as much as I have. I'm changing it today for one of your other beauties, but I'm certain this one will return one day!

Wow. What more can I say.
I adore all your work.

Thanks!

Beautiful :-)

What hell is this !!! Awesome Job !!!
