    This is just the eyes of a Gator at the St. Augustine rookery taken this year. There are times when the water is
    golden and I changed to WB to shade to bring out the gold. Thats about all. The End. I've enjoyed flips immensly
    and will keep practicing. Can hardly wait to work on Liquify!

    Cheryl, The water colors are gorgeous! Can hardly find a gator in there!! These flips really are neat-You start out with one look and end up with something completely different! Nice work-looking forward to the Liquid!!

    Interesting.

    I would have flipped it 180 degrees to have the larger eyes more of the mouth of whatever. As is, I'm trying to find a subject that doesn't appear to be there.

    I might also have liquefied the water area, to cut down on the background, which to me interferes with the subject.

    Sorry, but that is what I see.

    Attached is an example of the flip. I did not liquify it though.

    Can be fixed with little change, in my view.

    But appreciate the shot and see opportunity for a very interesting composition.

    Mark, Hi - I appreciate your comments. I'd thought about the 180 degrees but I envisioned it as a primitive
    totem pole with the smaller, sharper image on top. (Probably not a good subject to flip though).:o
