Well you certainly have the technical aspects of this stuff down pretty well. The image is difficult to break down though. The eye has nothing on which to focus. Perhaps if you included the entire piece of wood it might be more meaningful?

Hi Jeremi,
I agree with Regmar that the eye has nothing to focus on if you watch the image at full size.
As a thumbnail this image is much easier to "understand". Nevertheless, this picture is very interesting and I find lots of different aspects in it. Given your description I believe that it's a piece of wood evevn though it looks more like concrete. I have my own point of view and interpretation of this image and for me it has something special..., I really like it.

hehe thanks for your comments

interesting you should say theres nothing to focus on

anyone see the eyes and then nose + mouth just cut off?
long shaggy hair

im staring at it here on my 22" crt and 12" lcd and its fair jumping out at me

no one else?
oh well its just me then with my wonky eye ;)

I saw the face on the thumbnail Jeremi! Guess we are in the lock down togetherm huh? hehe....very interesting colors on this wood. I actually thought it was a wood carved face in the thumbnail. When viewed full screen, for me, the face is highly visible and quite unique. I have just downloaded this to my hardrive where it will reside with my other favorites! Good technical description through & through. You could dazzle me with it :)).....thank you my friend!

I saw it in the thumnail as well. It's sort of a Picasso style face. Well worth picking up this found object as an interresting abstract
