The Night of the Fract'ed Gator

This image was taken a few years ago at MINWR. Modification in CS4, Fractalius and Topaz included; Selective Colors, Fractalius, Topaz Lens Effects and other normal PS processing adjustments.

Enjoy!

Mark, I like the concept and the filtering. I wish the head was a little more visible, esp the eye and snout. I like the pano and framing and the rich blues.:S3: Maybe a little less black in the area on the RHS. It's a cool abstract.

I'm glad you said what it was in the title. I was thinking a group of small animals. A teeny bit dark to my eyes.

Nice composition, Mark. Like the concept and the fract camouflaged gator :S3: Just wish for a bigger canvas.

Thanks all for viewing and comments. Appreciate it.

The darkness reflects the setting at night, Denise. But appreciate you view as well.

I worked with a few proportions for this image, but given the posting width restrictions of the site, I wanted to maintain the "stealth-like" effect of the gator, which they are when they are skimming the surface as this one is. But again, appreciate other views.
