Unique. I'll second emromesco, and say that the way you capture the movement is stunning. My limited knowledge about painting made me think "Pollack"(sp?) when I saw the first shot - it reminds me of an enlarged section of "Blue Poles". Awesome sensations of movement, and vibrant color splashes. Nicely done. Carry on ! Wow, Michele … different, is the only word I can come up with…and I mean it in the most complimentary way. Unique.

The ghostly cucuruchos remind me of a legend... Los Penitentes de la Merced (?) Please anyone, correct me with the title and add the author... although it is indeed a "popular tale" I am sure I read it somewhere authored by someone.
