    Default Really Snowy Geese

    This started out as a sky full of snow geese that looked like snow anyway. I used Fractalius and then Dave Seeram's action. I'm not sure whether I like it or not - but it's different

    I think it is perfect for our current theme. Clever and creative. I like that I can see that they are geese, but, that they are abstracted somewhat. Lovely colors and effects.

    I think it's absolutely stunning. Very creative and appropriate for the theme. The three individual geese in the upper right are really a perfect element.

    This is super cool! I like how the geese are thick on the bottom and gradually thin out going up and eventually there are a few separate geese with their own snow flake design. Makes me think of blowing on a dandelion head and all the feathered seeds flying out and away.

    I like the colors, the aspect ratio, and all those primary diagonals set up by the wings of the geese. The similarity between the applied snow and the snow-flake appearance of the geese is very fanciful. I like the way you did it, but I can't help wondering how it would look if the there were a layer of much larger flakes. I agree with Nancy about the benefit of the density of geese becoming lower toward the top of the image. The difference in size adds to the depth, and the greater density helps to ground the image.
