Hi Monica,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review and Very Generous rating. I love to see God's paintings and sometimes HE allows me to capture them to show others. We are Blessed.
Everyone is doing well here so far. Trying to be prudent during these times. Thank you again Monica ~ Steve

Stunning Steve - the skyline and water appear to be on fire with the clouds creating the smoke. Wonderful composition with the silhouetted land and trees on right. Excellent entry.

Comment from cleo85
I think the he painted one of his master pieces and allowed you to photograph it. You did the master justice. Your mixed media is perfect. The colors are striking. That the colors run in the same diagonal direction as the silhouetted landscape sat the right is breathtaking. The photo is excellent focused and adequately treated with mixed media. The reflections are superb. The masterpiece is expertly composed and framed.

Comment from ArtistCarl
I just love this stuff. Good composition with that single strip of dark on the left and the dark land mass on the right. It really grounds this beautiful scene. This photograph reveals just how much of a naturally abstract world we really live in when we can see it instead of just looking at it. Reasons for my five star vote.

Thank you for your review and commentary. You know Carl people ask me how I get the shots that I do. I tell them, just as you have mentioned, I get out of my head and into my senses. It is when I stop "looking" that I see. I zone out of my mind and become one with the "what is". It is then that I "see what is staring me in the face". Then I simply push the cell phone button when I am told to do so. That is why I can never take credit for any of my photos. I am simply the "pusher of thee button". Thank you again Carl for your insightful review ~ Steve

You are welcome. Glad you can see, it really shows. I call it the 'conversation' with the painting. At that point it time the only thing that exists is the painting telling me what it wants to become.

Exactly what I feel in After Photo work.
Comment from Malmax
...And He paints....and creates... He gives it a warm glow and warm feeling with
His excellent progression of color in the sky..where there is light...and His beautiful reflection in the water...where it is deep. Yet he appears to encase both land and sea with a halo light
showing the beauty in each.
He is brilliant, he even gives the sky and water a gray appearance. Knowing that nothing is black and white...
He shows us shades of grey..
which I think are beautiful.
They balance the overall image..and ultimately He creates a masterpiece. I think
your work FS shows this with a perfect balance, focal point,
and beautiful warm color.
I can see how you love the sunsets in Mexico... They are
phenomenal. Outstanding
artistic work. You set the bar!
All the best in the competition...VO

OH My VO. What a wonderfully poetic and artistic review you have gifted me with. The only thing I can say is that you spiritual review is much better than the image. You truly enlighten me VO. Thank you, thank you ~ FS

Every word of my review just came to me like I was in a zone. I'm not even sure where it came from...but it wasn't to enlighten you..it was to show you
how you inspire me. VO

Sounds like my poetry. Who knows where it comes from? We Inspire Each Other VO ~ FS
