Default Making art out of nothing!

Before photography I would have either walked right past this tractor tyre print, or rather trudged through like a big soft kid. Now I've tried to turn it into an art.
Sincerely Yours,
"Totally Addicted"

Tyre tracks, sun and shadows

Sorry Mods. Forgot to click on "Medium" in flickr! Sorry, Sorry, Sorry.

Nice to see you had the creative mind to click the left over marks. I feel that in today's world we forget to see our own marks. Thanks for the creativity.

So true Susheel, and we have to take responsibility for all those marks we leave behind, be they physical or psychological. Thanks for your kind comment. PAUL

Thanks Teedlepeep. Yeah, lifelong, acute, chronic and totally incurable - not to mention expensive! Thanks for the compliment. PAUL

Yep! No doubt, you are totally addicted!! You can change the size of the image yourself. Go to edit and change width to 740 and height to 495 and you are good to go!

Thanks for that Mike. I'll know for next time, which I have no doubt will happen. Don't think as quickly as I used to. Cheers mate. PAUL

You are truly addicted. Soon you will be finding hard to go anywhere and complete a task. I stop so many times just on the way to the store to shoot something that caught my eye that I often forget why I was going to the store in the first place.

At first glance, before I read what you wrote, I thought this was an arid landscape taken from a plane! Great spot Paul!
