Stunning neon-like colours and a great composition. I like the way the toys separate the two colours of the background. Beautiful also the slightly texturized bottom
Superb work and a well deserved award.

Hi John,
Congratulations on the Editor's Choice for this one. A lot of people, myself included tend to go the opposite direction with the saturation. It seems like you have created a beautiful, dreamlike abstract by intentional over saturation in this case? It works well however you did it.

Thanks for your response John, but it's not really much of a 'diversion' for me living in Hawaii with beautiful 85-Degree Weather today ...

Just thought I would throw that in to make everyone envious ... !))

Aloha & Mahalo from Paradise ... God's Land of 'Coconut Milk & Honey', (my diversion) ... Ha! Ha!

神 風 神 風   {K:10665} 1/30/2006
A very good abstract John but perhaps a bit off the bottom to match the border spacing of the top margin and then remove the grain with a jpeg cleanup ... Yes/No?

But I do like it of course or I wouldn't have stopped by ...

Best of Regards!

Hi Jim, Thanks for the comment! The background was very dark to begin with. ( woods in the background)
I worked with the contrast mostly to darken it even more.Thanks for asking! Take care Jim! My best...........................John

Great color and symmetry. This is a real eye catcher. Did you photoshop the background out or was it originally a dark color if not black?
