avi thanks for your comment on "rippling hues".. when i was making it, i had the idea to have the water all the different colors, and they all combine to make the clear water.. i did think about adding some colored reflections to the clear drops, but that'd throw off my idea. thanks again ;]

Hi Avi, thanks for commenting on "Evil Eye". I added the fire last as I thought it looked a bit empty. Maybe I should have left it in the "normal" colors rather than chaning it to blue...

Thanks for the comment on Flowery Red Light District. I looked on it on a computer at work (I'm having a summer job at the local hospital) and couldn't really see anything of the shot as it looks at home. over 95% total darkness as opposed to just maybe 50 or so as intended... :P I guess one have to get a fantabulous screen like me (or like calibrate it) to really appreciate it. I suppose you do (or did). ^_^ It's a clematis btw, white for the most part with some bluish to purple stripes (the colors turned out really crappy in the present lighting settings).

Hello! I love your gallery, I just wish I had time to comment on all of them. I especially liked "Native" and I was surprised to find that I had first glimpsed your work in the Draw a Frog contest with "Baron Silus Greenback". Anyway, after seeing "Communication Node 9" I remembered that I had a shot you might enjoy. Please check it out in my gallery (I still don't know how to use the embedded links on these comment things). Thanks for sharing! :)

Thanks for the comment on Organic Steel. Hehe... Ok. Now that you ask... In the foreground to the right is the lid of a stainless steel cooking pot that you see in the background to the left and on the side of the pot you see the reflection of a glass of water (plus some of the lid), all standing on a stainless steel kitchen sink. Did I mention I like stainless steel?
