Since I’ve climbed onto the abstract band wagon, or is that fallen off the abstract wagon…here’s one from Sunday. This is a small, quiet pond at a local wildlife refuge reflecting the trees and shrubs, which are already showing some of their fall colors.

Mark, another really nice post for this WC theme. The overall ripple action is outstanding. The FG darker ripple action is especially interesting and quite active there. Then the MG left has yet another action taking place there as maybe a point of water entry area possibly? It seems to have the energy a bit centered and pulsating outward toward the center. All good stuff for a puzzle teaser in the end…👍

Wonderful Mark. The abstract patterns are fantastic and the range of hue is impressive. Can’t say I’d suggest any changes. A terrific and worthy entry to the WC.

That is quite the ripple pattern and would be pure torture in a puzzle. Great entry.

Mark: Love the ripples, especially with the “invasion” of the round pattern in the ULC. Well seen and superbly captured. \>=))\>
