Something a little different

Post by Charles Krebs »

Sometimes when exploring a slide I come across a "micro-scene" that just grabs my attention, not necessarily for a specific detail or creature, but simply a graceful juxtaposition of shapes, forms, and colors. Here are three recent examples that I kind of liked.
