all dead, all dead
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.
For my poor plastic black flowers are dead.
The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.
just kidding.

Interesting find Elaine!The vignette works well in this one.
j’aime cet art brut
Very artistic.I like it…Flower is the ides right?
Just perfect !
Sure is artistic, the details are perfectly applied here!
Very creative image, interesting compostion, almost abstract, Im like it.CongratulationsSwissCharles
Hmm why didnt you water them 🙂 great shot love it!
Are those splurting flowers that spray water on your guests when they walk down the path to your house? The vignette looks great! Cool.
:o( interesting and thought provoking image Elaine, I wasn’t sure what they were till I read the words, very well presented my friend.
Wonderful shapes..forms..textures. Nice image!
Not blowing in the wind anymore but still very interesting.
Very artistic shot
You are sooooo not dead!!Love the toning of blue and old rust.Looking at this, I have the feeling you already know what you need to know about textures but I can always tell you some tricks that could help 😉
A stunning composition giving the feeling of rage and defeat. A great work!
beautiful image and treatment – I will sent to you a gift
Cool composition and post processing.
very artistic! the composition, toning vignettes & brushes of white paint look really good! great shot! 🙂
How could you let them die, Elaine!! All they ask is a daily polish with a baby wipe or a duster and some Pledge… such a sad demiseCool photo, great work, as always
Nice one. 🙂
wow! I missed some gorgeous images in the past weeks! the ones that I keep returning to are the self portrait, out the window and a bird’s perspective. exceptionally work here, Elaine!
Wonderfully strange and different. Cool!
I like the way you engage viewrs to find the truth!
The processing is great, love the gritty feel to it. But I am yet to figure out what they are 🙂
Like the edging and dark contrasts. Interesting and always different Elaine. Very creative image.
Bordeur original and fantastic photo
Great composition, like the colours and details.
Really like the strong contrast and textures here. Great image and great gallery!
Who dared do is it such mess? :))) Excellent idea, colours and details.
Great picture, I would definitely put that on my wall!
Very creative shot! Simple et efficace! Un très bon rendu aussi. Bravo!
Very interesting, not sure what the function is..?
Excellent! (even in death)
”i have no answer for you lol”lol Hi Elaine, what I meant was is it purely decorative like a fountain, is it used for watering plants, or maybe part of a theatre..??Mike
The toning is just perfect for this, Elaine. I think the music would be a funeral dirge!
very artistic capture of the propellers, nicely laid out and great processing the vignette works well here
Cool chaotic picture… really like the old scratched up processing you have done here. Very nice
Very artistic, love the tones and textures.
Wow what a cool photo and an interesting find!
How cool. The film theorist in me’s tempted to go way overboard on this one, so I’ll keep quiet and content myself with: just fabulous. As usual 😉
Fantastic blue! Stunning, Elaine!
Did I sleep through the day you posted this one? I can’t believe I missed it. It’s gorgeous.
It’s fine art! I don’t what these “flowers” are, no problemo, not important. The image has many interpretations.
I really like this …you have very refreshing pictures !
YOU are the littlest artist within me, that can only be expressed through you… Love love love this one. Sheesh, I love them all =D
