I decided to experiment a little today. I had taken a photo of a grove of Evergreens but felt I wanted to do something a bit unique with them. So I added the background that will have to be figured out thru your own imagination. See what you come up with. I'll be interested in your thoughts on that little 'trip.' --------note------ Ok what it really is....is a giant dinosaur keeping guard over the forest!!!! And he's tame and kind, kind of like taking guarding it.

Interesting creation Verena. There is a cabined feel to this and I wonder how you can find the way out of this mysterious forest. Great work!

V, to me it is nature versus man-made. The man-made scene in the background reminds me of wall, almost reptilian in look and feel. Nature stands before it. The wall is strong and we cannot get behind it. But, as you see, what nature creates is strong too and that is where you have left us in this contest of realities. I vote for nature, for with time, the wall will deteriorate and its space will be reclaimed by the ever-reproducing nature.

Verena - I'm waiting for huge, two-foot bees to emerge from the honeycombs, with the low, loud hum of beating wings, fir branches being blown about by the wind created by the bees' flight! But, then I see the bright sun light on the warm-colored branches and think, 'Nah! Verena's just playing with us." Creative work here! Thad

It looks like a pine tree hut, with alligator skin siding. Are you going into architectural design now, Verena. LOL. Good imagination and nice presentation of your work.

Glad to know something that big is 'tame and kind', Verena. I love the reptile skin effect. It actully looks rather warm and cozy.

Reminds me of tv show-LOST. I wonder when the smoke monster will show its face. A piece of the past in the future or is it a piece of the future in the past? Maybe it's from the tv show V, Verena.

A nice job on this Manip, Verena. I like the giant snake skin look for a background. I thought I was having a flashback from something I might have smoked back in the 60' Oh! Yeah! Thats right I didn't inhale. A good'un.

Yep, I have to agree! This is quite different from what I have seen from you here otherwise. Interesting to say the least!

An interesting creative image Verena. The honeycombed background could represent camouflage netting. It is hidden by the grove of trees. Therefore this must be the secret studio you use to create all your fabulous images. Nicely done.
