When you try to catch
the essence of life
most of it slips out
between your fingers
If you stop trying
it just comes to you
by its own

The poem in words fits very well to the poem for the eyes. A miracle work.
i believe some artists have displayed a creative ability that puts them beyond the need 4 the technical critique ot rate, this one is simply extraordinary Gun, all your images capture soul and heart, i love it!!! V O T E
indeed ....life is like mercury can't keep it within the grisp of the hand ,a very touchy concept.
When your senses are captured by the beauty of a perfect image - thats great ... ... but when ones heart is genuinely touched by the truth of it ... its more than "just" art. Its authentic. Thank you - you made my early morning even fresher.
Masterful!!! Beautiful!!! Perfect!!!
Beautiful imagery and words. The way you render this is wonderful.
I would say this is exceptional - although for you that is the norm - so I'd say this is normal for you - which is, of course, to say it is exceptional. What I am trying to say is --- GREAT JOB!

beautiful and symbolic with water being the basis of life... love the whole feel of this piece and your words are a great touch... Excellent!!
Just beautiful Gun! :)))
You know, you're absolutely right... there's such a thing as trying too hard, and it can be difficult to "decondition" yourself against this. Why is it so hard sometimes to just be?
Wonderful work and perfect subject matter! Sometimes things can slip so easily from within our grasp as well!!
A masterpiece!! Perfect in every way!! Breathtaking!! Congratulations, Gun!! You have my vote!!
