Sometimes Mother Nature does an extraordinary job of creating scenes or subjects suitable as abstract images in their own right. Sometimes though, I feel she needs a helping hand to create an image people might want to hang on their walls. All the images in this collection are taken from something I spotted in a natural environment. The degree to which I have abstracted them in post-production varies from none at all (eg.The Great Barrier Reef) through to extensive use of the software available to me to create what I see as a pleasing image that others might like.
