The original photo was of a tacky statue that graced a hall on the cruise ship we traveled on to explore parts of Alaska. Personally, I feel that my Photoleap editing greatly improved its appearance.
What can only be described as an unlikely flying assemblage of oddly shaped and colored pieces: Roseate Spoonbill in breeding plumage returning to the Smith Oaks rookery at High Island, Texas.
When I bought this painting, I did it just for fun, because it was the time, when I loved Feininger and Cezanne.
I still love Feininger and Cezanne, but now I also love this kitsch painting.
Tough not to fall into kitsch while rendering a sunset's striking colors. Let's hope I didn't fail to hard with this picture taken a few days ago from the the stircage on my building's top floor. I whish I could have one of the appartmens there :)
Thank you everyone for your visits, faves and comments, they are always appreciated :)
Confession: I called it 'kitsch' because I changed the sky :( It's so easy nowadays that the temptation gets harder and harder to resist...
In my defence (in case you really do accuse me):
1. I liked the wildflowers and grasses foreground, but the sky was too dull
2. I used a sky shot by myself in this same area, with the same phone. (Even at similar near-sunset time of day, although the observant will find some discrepancy in lighting, despite my 're-lighting' attempts in Luminar)...
Anyway - this may not win any NatGeo competitions, but I like it enough to keep (and share - and maybe even frame it on a wall ;)
(Did I mention I like kitsch?)
Some Kitsch always proves to be going well these days. ;-)
Oh, and yes: "Orange and Blue" ... I get it.
But orange and blue also exist outside of Florida!
Live with it, folks! ;-)

"...posando il mio sguardo sulle piastrelle del bagno.
Erano vecchie, ma il colore era bello, e avevano un che di familiare. Assomigliavano a quelle del bagno della casa dove vivevo con mio padre e la mia vera madre, quando ero ancora molto piccola."

yup, very bright colours, but I like it in some way! Hope you too!
