BELLY DANCER

"Belly Dancer" (3-25-17 010v2) was just taken yesterday and worked on right now. Not much done. Just some cropping and color work (to bring out contrasts, i.e., no changing of colors), and a wee bit of diffusing and sharpening. I love this willow. It's one of two I frequently sit under on my walker to rest on my way to and/or from the beach overlook. I've tried to get decent realistic pix of both of them many times without much success. So when I came up this time with (at least) three that are more or less cool in their "natural state" I was quite happy. I'm also looking forward to thoroughly fudging them into less or maybe completely non-representational versions. All those lines and curves and shadows to play around with, oh my!
