Spawning Ground by TwoPynts
Open full image in new tabDescription
Many of you guessed the direction I was taking with my last photo, so here is the logical next step. The sperm is fertilizing the egg. We have conception/insemination! Are there going to be any rusty offspring? That is something we are just going to have to wait to find out. The image was coming out a bit flat, so I pushed the values and darkend up the metallic surface of the old traction engine. I am really fond the flamelike quality some of the rust smears have in this photo. ----- I hope you all had a good weekend and thank you for your swimming comments on my upload Friday, Swimming Upstream.

Waaaaay Cooooooooooool!!!!!!!!
You certainly have a super winner hee Kort. The contrast levels and increased colour saturations are all paying off. It certainly makes it a much stronger image. Thank you for sharing with us such a wonderful find.

LOL!I was wondering where yesterday's upload would lead.Silly me,I saw fishies not sperm,lol.But in this one it's hard NOT to see them.I wonder what the offspring will be,too.Is that tommorow's upload or do we have to wait nine months?LOL a fine image as always Kort!Have a great day!-M :^)
Very interesting. Nice stuff! KP
Really excellent imaging! Helps to have the explanation... I can see it all now - nice vision! Gotta love that rust... +++
Okay...bottom middle (Below the circle, just left of the stream) there is a perfect flame! the kind that would inspire many a Harley gas tank design! Or tattoo!! I must say, you and Egmont (And myself, if I may lump myself into such excellent company!) see entire univerese's in such texture! Now if I hadn't licked that damn toad, I might be able to pull myself away from the image! Must...regain.....focus.....
