Description
Giving and receiving.
Creating and being created.
I'll leave it to you to decide and to discover.
Eleven of my own photographs.
I was inspired by Joanne and her Exotic Carpet to begin this project, and if any of you old timers see a little Unstrung65 influence in this, you wouldn't be mistaken. When I was flipping the original image, some of Doug's long-ago work came to mind.
These photo manipulations are such fun to do ... it's a joy to get lost in the creative process!

Very nice work, Tara! great composit next thing you know, you'll be involved with Mb3D and either Poser or DAZ
I loved the preview of this and knowing what's in this amazing piece of work is fabulous. Truly great stuff!!
Cool work!!!
Outstanding work! I do see a demonic face just above the "Bean". Not sure if that was intentional.
Awesome and beautiful!!
What a super lovely Manip, Tara. A wonderful result. I love when you do that :) :-D
Nice work on this Tara very well done!!
Soooo intricate and engaging. What a lot there is to see, marvellous work from the master?/mistress!
There is a lot to stir the brain in this Tara, I don't know whether I can cope with it!!! Lol.
Reflecting on life - your life combined with the memory of a camera. Super, Clive
Excellent shot.
Oh ho! Heehee! Great job Tara! I'm glad I inspired you. These manipulations can be such fun...
nice piece of imagery my friend
magnifique!!!
I can get lost in this for hours. Seeing all the little details. just Beautiful.
Fun to zoom and inspect every detail. Like the way this begins at the beach and ends who knows where:) Didn't I see those figures in some alleyway next to an old pottery shop? Great result assembled out of curious bits and pieces throughout your files. Keep them coming:*
Looks like a "Lost" (TV serie) enigma :))
Whoa! Taotally different Tara! Great job here. Gonna comment as I can due to.....guest! Will catch up afterwards.. Great work though.. Rob
Very Nice.
Interesting work! :)
Great work Tara. When I saw the thumbnail I thought you had made a quick trip to Asia.
Yep - it's easy to get lost in this one! Love what you've done here, Tara! It really pulls you into the image - and I'd much prefer being in there, than going to work in a couple hours.... Ugh! Delightful manip!
wonderful looking
Oooh, I love this! Da Bean is in there too! WOW! What really grabs me is how wonderful this is as both idea and execution; I've been thinking a lot about balance lately, and in ways of re-achieving an older balance that Chicago has since banished due to its adherence to a different, far more fragile (and transitory) balance. What I really like is the complexity in this, the fact that there's so much to explore: so many answers begging for questions. Marvelous!
Wow! Wonderfully creative juxtaposition of multiple dimensions. Love it!
Now that is something else post-work is amazing, superb photo!!
So fabulous to see this result, Tara. An amazing scene it is. Very surprising too.
Amazing stuff! I love photomanipulations too, there's so much "art" you can do digitally that you can't easily do otherwise. Well done you!
