Wow, this is really beautiful. The colors and the light/dark contrast are really striking. And there's more to it than meets the eye at first glance! It took me a long time staring at it to notice the subtle orange-tree shapes in the light. I really like it.
ReplyDeleteP.S., the book it was inspired by is awesome, too. Have you heard of the "Sounis" community at livejournal where they discuss this series? They'd love to see your pictures there, I'm sure! You should drop by some time and post a link :)
