POTW 30.06.09

Postby Geoff on Tue Jun 30, 2009 6:51 pm

This week, unlike many other week's I've selected I actually didn't see too many images at all that really stood out. That said when biggerry posted his new flash macro a couple of days ago it really struck a chord with me, why? I can't really explain it but as I said in the original here, this type of abstract image would look fantastic enlarged, really big on canvas!

So without further ado here's the image:

Congrats biggerry!

It certainly is a most unusual picture! I can see why you got attracted to this image because it grows on you. Congratulations!

Good choice, different twist on water drops as well as being nicely executed.
