INCUBATING A SKY DRAGON

"Incubating A Sky Dragon" (7-28-09 4458v4[4]) was just fussed out of a very old pic version of mine, one of my oldest. I was a lot more jazzed about it earlier on as I edited and tortured it. Now, well, it's more of a meh response on my part to it. The dragon-to-be has gotten a bit lost in all the other fuss. Ain't that the way of it? I could go back and start over from the original version but I just don't have the energy and focus left at this point. Plus, there are household chores nagging at me. So, here's the possibility of a dragon for you to mull over, should you wish.

UNDYING THIRST

"Undying Thirst" (6-26-14 005v17[3]) was just tortured out of a very old pic version of mine. I've been at it quite some time and I'm surprised it hasn't gone totally wonky on me. But I kept seeing something, kinda sorta, out of the corner of my mental eye and did not want to give up on getting at least a good bit closer to it. This version does get right up next to what I kept feeling was/could be in this pic.

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GO THERE?

"Do You Really Want To Go There?" (Screenshots 2-21-19[2]) has probably been posted here before (a long time ago). Though I've been fussing at it for some time today, at this point I may have just returned it to the way it was when I started. It looks very familiar. :-) In any case, I still like it a bit more than most I've been posting for some time. So here it is!

THEY CLAIM THEY'RE GOOD FOR WHAT AILS YOU

"They Claim They're Good For What Ails You" (6-27-14 005v13) is a very old pic that I fussed at but could not improve the one thing that bothers me. Won't mention it here, maybe you won't even notice it... :-)

UNDER A VERNAL FULL MOON

"Under A Vernal Full Moon" (8-10-14 008v6a[2]) was just fussed out of a very old pic of mine. Its title references spring (as it is now) but it was taken in late summer. Of course, that's not so hard to understand given all the editing that's beneath what I did to it today. Colors especially influence a mood or time that a pic may suggest. And I probably fudged more with the colors over the years and now, than anything else in this photo. One problem I've had from the start (it was taken in 2014) is balancing it visually. That full moon shape is now balanced, but that moves the leaves crossing the center into a somewhat unbalanced position. I've gone back and forth through the years on which way it works best (full moon skewed to one side or another, or leaves off-center). Or even if it works either way. But here it finally is, "warts" and all. One "wart" being that dark stuff at the bottom center. Now, if I were skilled enough with GIMP I could mitigate that readily, but I just haven't had the energy and focus to wrestle that editing program to the mat. And don't know if I ever will. In the meantime, I make do with Windows 10's very limited Photos editing program.

THE COLORS OF NIGHT HAVE ALWAYS BEEN CAUGHT ON MY EYES

"The Colors of Night Have Always Been Caught On My Eyes" (10-4-14 014v6[3]) is a very old pic, slightly fussed with just now (trying to better balance color contrasts). The title is from an old dream-based poem of mine (a sad, loving one about me and a young dark-haired boy). This photomorph is one I highly recommend viewing in a larger version as the lines show up better and the pic appears more balanced over-all (just click on the image if you're interested).
