    Not sure if this really fits the theme, but I thought it had an Asian feel to it. And besides, I got to use my chop (never thought to use it on a photo before...) A friend had it made for me in China quite a few years back. It means "Drunken Deer", but that is another story...

    Nice image, Mitch! Without the chop, I have a hard time seeing the Asian theme, but I like it as posted. The chop placement works. As for the chop meaning, I assume it is a nickname for you and you are the creator, so it's ok IMO.

    Mitch, I think the reflections give it an Oriental feel. I love your chop and I'm sure the story behind the meaning is interesting.

    Your chop story certainly sounds intriguing! I like the interplay of the wavy lines with the anhinga head just sticking out above the water in their usual way.

    Mitch, I love that your chop is actually your own. I had one made for a friend of mine when we were in San Francisco. I have always loved the way they look like stamps. Nice reflection and interesting scene.

    Great geometric and organic mix, Mitch. The reflection is awesome!
