Primitive Art - carved head appearing out of the soil .......

-

How cool is this ?  Just attended a horticulture course on soil and composition and this was part of the exercise to see how different soils would bind together and spotted this face that looked like an native carving - even the hair is there !

 One of the other students created this "sculpture" from his piece of clay from his own garden.   Amazing how simple things can create a great shot.

Wonderful Moss Garden - Natures Own Abstract Art

What do you all think of this as natures very own handiwork ? This could almost have been duplicated in a tapestry or made into one of Kaffe Fassett's tapestrys or  knitted works of art or painted into a giant artwork don't you think ? This macro image was one of a very small clump of moss on a concrete step - just goes to show what can happen when you view things differently - we've probably all been just walking over these amazing shots and not giving them a second glance.  Try looking at everyday things like moss, slimy gutter pipes,  mould and rust through your macro lens and see what you can see.
