Created for Mel/Lauraxfire who is doing the hard yards at the moment and to whose connection here on flickr has been my privilege.
Always wonderfully generous with a keen sense of humour,Mel's art which is always inspirational takes you on journeys never envisaged and is just an amazing experience to view ..!
This piece is inspired by the following quotation found on Mel's profile page...
(When the doors of perception are cleansed, man will see all things as they truly are, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern...William Blake 1793)

There is a big difference between whether something is like that or whether you think something is like that. Much in our life is our own perception.
Depth perception is the ability to see the world in three dimensions and to perceive distance. Although this ability may seem simple, depth perception is remarkable when you consider that the images projected on each retina are two-dimensional.
Our eyes and mind see a picture in front of us. Our own mind and eyes will interpret what it thinks it sees . Love shapes and patterns as my own eyes and mind try ro work out pictures. Its like each day, we witness, perhaps the same pictures but we individually decide on what we're seeing.
