I found something entrancing about the natural gradient of newly fallen snow on our welcome mat one recent morning.
I can't decide whether the shapes between the stars are abstract maple leaves or some sort of strange hat. Opinions?

Based on some of the manipulated photos I posted as abstracts, this is a completely made up image I created using Paintbrush, a free color-paint program on my Mac. I can see too many artifacts from the tool that my skill isn't up to dealing with. HOWEVER, the basic thought seems to have worked out ok. What I noticed in the manipulated images of the inside of a crab's shell is that having a gradient or progression in a limited palate going along one dimension, and then applying a second palate and shape in another direction was "interesting" to look at. So here's a spray-paint gradient in blue tones, upper left to lower right, with a poured color splater going right to left, fading from orange to bright yellow.
Though we had a seven day 'rover' ticket on the MUNI, we chose to walk up Powell Street rather than queue with the other tourists and waste an hour that could be more usefully engaged in photography!
