Thanks so much for your comments and advice..

Great use of reflection and rotation for this effect!

I see something very eeery and potentially very dangerous in this one - the Alien-like face and tentacles. Might be a good candidate for some *extreme* processing. I sometimes take photos like this and change them to night to increase the sense of foreboding (such as in my shot "Danger") - maybe some selective burning to bring out the face...

Great eye for detail...

I think I understand what you mean, I need to work in the mood. I got the colors direct from lightroom, and I saw the chance to make it blue, maybe from there I could make a better night effect. I will try with this tomorrow.

I am very happy you found it interesting...

Thanks a lot Toad!! ...

That is seriously creepy, very nice work Irma

I got a chill down my spine looking at this. As Toad said - great use of rotation.

Thanks Craig, Chris for your comment....

Here is another version in a more cold mood... ?

This time I didn't clone out the little branches in the bottom, because I started from scratch my pp, I also didn't sharpen... forgot it.



Thanks so much for your help!!

Wow, that second one is even more creepy than the first. It looks like something I'd see from a powerful microscope.

Great work....and YEEEuch! The moss looks so much like the fur you see on spider macro's.

Thanks Craig, Matt. I like this version too..

[Toad]

Definitely more sinister color. Nice!

It makes me think of snakes or a bony finger and thumb.

I thank you very much that you find interesting my picture. I thank also Matt because long ago he planted de idea of macro landscapes. I would like a lot to improve the idea with better pictures.
