HI Ann: I love abstract art, and I think the found collage is a nice start to an interesting experiment, ann. I say go for it, and Bob W.’s point is well made; for a calendar there will be challenges, but challenges that can be over come to be sure—especially with your capable eye! Cheers,

It is rare. It's working for me today. I see you added two more to the gallery. I like the little bird. Or maybe it's five more since your original post said 27 ... the last one when I was having problems was #29 now there's 32. Anyway, I like the sparrow. On 11/14/2013 10:43 PM, Ann

A nice set. I like the shot of the tables, but it might benefit from slightly wider framing. (Of course if you were shooting with a prime that may not have been possible.) I also like the juxtaposition of the Empire State Building with the foreground architecture. The ship details don't do much
