“La Presa” – Ancient Landscapes Series / Brazil Agate Rock

This is another image created from a cut slab of Brazil Agate rock.
I like the barren landscape feel and the look of a approaching storm.
This rock had a ever so slight hint of cyan/blue within, so I removed that color in Photoshop.

Really superb. It really is amazing what one can see when looking at these rocks. An approaching storm really hits the nail on the head for me. The stones really do give interesting Rorschach tests.

Amazing portrayal of the light along the ridge here Michael. Works for me!

As a lover of natural gems, I’ve always adored the Agates. I’m partial to the Dendritic (Greek..tree-like)Agates and their appearance of winter scenes. Beautiful image here, Michael.

This is my blog journal, a journal about the art that can be found in nature, about macro photography, and other topics of interest! I’m just a typical American boy, from a typical American home in South Carolina, and one who enjoys exploring all the possibilities of capturing artistic abstracts in the world of macro. This journal has been created not only as a outlet for my thoughts about the world of nature photography, but hopefully as a place where others may visit, … and maybe learn something from it. Currently I am working with various clients and art buyers throughout the US.
