Hi,
this is from several years ago. it was taken out of the country and Artie was standing next to me, that is the hint, but not a complete hint. Wild guesses may come close to reality. I don't remember the whole process that i took to make it come out like this. I wish I did, but I know some of it.
I have NO idea what this is but I love the way the tail crosses over to the lower right corner. I even like the pixelated look of the BG. Very inventive! Now show us the original!!!
Gary is right. it is a scarlet macaw. Photographed at a ranch in Costa Rica. Camera- MK II N, I think. for sure 28-135 IS. I got the shot. Artie did not since he was trying out the 400 Do and we were too close to the flight path. Here is the original.
Hehehe, I think I had seen the original, but would have not figures it our. It looks very nice the way the way you mixeed the colors in the abstract.
Glad your creative juices are at work again!
Jeez, and to think that I thought it was a psychadelic sperm!
