    From time-to-time I peruse the back-pages of OCS... usually, I'm avoiding all the
    things I'm supposed to be doing - don't tell my wife!!

    I don't remember this one Cristóbal, so it was cool to find it back there... fun! thumb.gif
    It looks to me like it could be a cousin of the HAL 9000 computer from the movie - 2001: A Space Odyssey.

    btw... *untitled* works for me - I found my own interpretation.

    Good job, Eric, to dig this one up! The poor thing sat without a comment for two years. One wonders, why?

    Neat shot, though. But what can be said about it? Clone the stick out and submit it to Mikasa as a dinner plate design? Not a bad idea, actually. No sarcasm! wave.gif

    Very interesting image Cristóbal. Firstly, it is quite beautiful. Secondly, it is polarizing my imagination ... is it a relic from Tutankhamun ... or is it a probe from a futuristic alien race? It may simply be a lamp ... but it is too alluring to be a simple lamp. Thanks for sharing. BTW- A title may have made the image better. :<)

    Boy Eric... you really are procrastinating on whatever is on your honey do list to find the time to dig this one out! Posted in December 2012!

    I like the plate idea, but I guess I saw it as an urban flower of sorts, hence the "stem".

    Thanks for the comments guys!:):

    Gary, you think? Maybe we should have a discussion about it! <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/rolleyes1.gif" border="0" alt="" >rofl

    Alex, by not giving it a title I allowed you to see a dinner plate, Eric and Don an alien, Gary a relic from Tutankhamun, Stumblebum a fan, Richard and myself some kind of flower... In other words I gave you freedom... a wonderful thing.

    This is true. But the original intent, if indeed it was one, "Urban Flower" trumps everything. Not only because it appears to be apt, but because it shows YOUR vision. And isn't it the entire point?

    Enjoyed!

    Could be, except I came up with the title two years later. :D

    And this, as a photographer would say, is outside the frame. Even if it came together a minute ago -- it stays, and you got yourself a whole new piece of art. Well done!
