Oh, You Just Like the Colors

That's the lament from the artist when you really don't seem to get the work ... oh, you just like the colors.

Here that's my specific purpose since I want to blow Mystery Lady, an excellent artist, right away with this one.


Screw the message ... I love the colors.  I'm kind of tickled with it since the image is sharp and crispy; it shouldn't lose anything in going up to full-size.

If there's any message, it's about life finding a way ... by exploding in a million hues of extravagance.

Note:  the image is not reprocessed and is the highest resolution I've got.  See above about blowing you away ... at the risk of blowing away the computer due to the storage needed to display it.  If it doesn't work, let me know and I'll replace it with a smaller one.


So what if someone steals it.  Maybe they will do something nice with it.  What else could you do with it (larfs).


I have no idea what kind of bloom we have here but it would, for me, take away some of the flowerness to pull the scienceness into it.  Whatever it is ... just is.

Ed:  is that today's stoner Zen?

Yep.


Update:

Blogger didn't keep the resolution as high as I had hoped so it's not master quality but it is large and it does stay crispy.  Your best move on it is to drag it to your Desktop and display it from there.  That will give the biggest bang.  It holds up just fine at full-screen size and the iMac has a big one.

Beautiful! It's one of those air/grafted cactus? The colors are great-good pic! Did you take that at Krohn?

Darn!! I never thought to save the image!! I have never done that before!! There are so many others I would have saved if I had known to do that. I will go back through old posts and capture some pics and put them in a folder.

Well...I may have to steal it...but wonder if my Prismacolors have all those colors...probably not. I like how the light hits the center and lights it up!

Not Cactus--Bromeliad i think. ML

Thank you and that was almost certainly from Krohn. In case you have never seen the conservatory, it's in Eden Park in Cincinnati and it's worth the drive.

Yes, all the images on Ithaka can be dragged off to your Desktop. It's socialist top to bottom (larfs).

This one was definitely for the devious purpose of seeing whether it sparks anything.

I can see a VERY colorful abstract......very inspired!

Actually, did not drag to desktop because it is not mine--its belongs to Hellboy! If I were privy to WIFI password, I could use my own computer. I guess I will have to look into a portable hotspot?? Next time we talk, I'm gonna ask you a few tech questions-ok?

Now, let me get back to my coloring...no way to interfere with that!

The inspiration isn't in taking the picture but rather what you do with it.

Tech works fine and there's been a bit of that getting the machine set up for Yevette.

No chance anything can interfere with the coloring!
