I'm not terribly fond of manipulation of images at all, but it the aim of the manipulation is to make them ~less~ realistic, then I'm less fond again. I don't know why; maybe I'm just an old stick-in-the mud. I mean, if you painted such an image, I might like it. But if you photograph the image, then take it apart and re-assemble it as you did, I don't like the result. The flip side of that, is that I'm not fond of painting that's ultra-realistic (like Canada's Alex Colville, for example). Geez, if you wanted to make it look like a photograph, you could have saved lots of time, and just taken a picture! <vbg> Maybe I just have to broaden my artistic horizons. <g> cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
