Love it Norm! I missed your "vision" while you were vacationing! #4211509

Norman P. Banks April 25, 2007

Hey Steve & Kimi, thanks for the nice comments!

Steve: the original image is of the hallway leading to the catwalk at our place in Pompano beach.

After color editing, I selected the fire extinguisher area and used curves to bring up the hose detail & deepen the shadows. I then converted the image using dry brush and tweaked it some with dodging & burning.

Norm, it's not just your rendering, which of course is always fascinating, it's your ideas to begin with that engage so much. And what a pleasure it always is to see them realized. #4309067

Norman P. Banks May 21, 2007

Mitch, thanks for the warm comments and much appreciated encouragement!

I love using tne medium to explore ideas, concepts and techniques.

Digital photo art is my Zen practise and what's more, it occasionally results in a sale or two. (smile)

Hey now Judi!

Nothing can be more inspirational for me than to know that something I've done moves another to create.
