You already know, I like this series a lot Michelle.
When I saw this one my first impression was a memory of sitting on a Polynesian beach, looking out to sea.
(It gave me a kink in the neck.)
If you look at the gradient from light in the foreground (bottom in that orientation) to dark in the distance, it looks very much (to me) like an open seascape below a lightly streaked sky. Just me …....

Great series, can’t wait to see where you go next.

Very nice, as usual, but what is a “pocket digital”, Michelle?

-- Paul - The sweetest sound in my shop, next to Mozart, is what a hand plane makes slicing a ribbon.

Littlepaw: just a cheap small pocket sized digital..coolpix L22 nikon. Was 89.00 not exactly the camera serious artists use! :-)

MC, one would presume so..I have seen the wood sold as white limba , all light colored and black limba, all dark. Mine was lumber and approx 1/2 &1/2 on the board

I really like this series. They look like sunbursts from afar.

Wow! Those look even more amazing with that blue sky, and snow, behind them.

your creations are always really excellent looking…even with a pocket digital.
Getting good pictures is as much of an art as creating the art.
Have you looked into a photo cube for taking your pictures?

Really beautiful work

-- Mother Nature created it, I just assemble it. - It's not ability that we often lack, but the patience to use our ability

Michelle My Dear absolutely brilliant you sure know how to create a series well done and keep on enjoying your turning and being creative Regards Roger
