One more from Brompton Cemetery. I found this very near to the cemetery entrance, while we were waiting for Tony64 and Ron Tear to arrive.
Thanks for looking,
Moira

PS By the way, twenty four hours on and I still haven't been slapped on the wrist by the site for uploading yesterday's snake under the Wildlife tag. When I uploaded a sheep shot under Nude/Glamour I received a very sharp rebuke for trying to mislead people!

For a minute I thought you had been using a distortion filter, but then I put my glasses on - well observed abstract Moira SmileSmile

Inspiring, Moira. I did struggle with the concept on that day, but your images will tempt me to reasses my images.

Another fine spot Moira. I wondered what it was from the thumbnail.

Thanks everyone, and Ron, that's a very generous comment. I've had this sitting on my hard drive for three months, it's quite a personal image. It's very me, but I'm never sure if other people will appreciate such shots.
It hasn't been cropped by the way. Looking at it now I'd like a bit more space on the left - but I remember that the next pattern started up almost immediately, there wasn't actually any space to be had.

A fine abstract Moira and the colours are superb! It works for me! Love your comment about tagging - I hadn't noticed the wildlife tag yesterday and didn't know about the sheep!! What fun.... SmileSmile

Well I suppose I have to take some credit or this gorgeous image Moira!Wink
I'm surprised you can still doubt your own confidence in images, you do so well with your uploads.
And no need to doubt your inner demons here either!
This is a very pleasing shot. The circular and linear patterns next to each other work extremely well indeed and covered in that lovely green moss (?) give them that 'earthy' quality!
Love it!
Tony

I'm right there with Helen, I thought it was an lb or some such. Highly unusual, and on the matter of the site wrist slapping, they don't do it if they think you'll enjoy it. Tongue

Now this is a really well observed abstract ~ the complementary tones, colours and detail come together perfectly.

This would be one for my ''colourful grot'' folder Moira.
And anyone that uploads sheep get a sharp rebuke from me.
No matter what tag it is under !!

... you mean the snake wasn't real!!

The power of the golden ration here, Moira. The patterns work in harmony and opposition at the same time, with an overlay of lovely textures (not literally).

The editor's not Welsh then?Wink

The purples do look a bit surreal, don't they? Nice juxtaposition of colours and forms.

The textures remind me of wallpaper often seen adorning the walls of Indian restaurants.
Very interesting contrast here between the rigidity of the verticals and the free-flowing circles.

Very nicely seen juxtaposition of the two design elements (lines and curves).
Regarding the "Nude/Glamor" tag -- what is the problem with the tag police? I could understand if it was a wolf in sheep's clothing. That might be dangerously deceptive.

Excellent tones and textures not forgetting the patterns which help to make the picture special, the strong color of the moss I find very attractive.
