Below are some photographs that I morphed using Paint.net image altering software. Paint.net is a free software product produced in association with Microsoft. It is first class and it is absolutely free.
The ability to use layers is like opening a door that leads into another dimension. Getting used to it is like adjusting to a new interpretation of everyday events because you found out you were wrong.
I have a series of photos in mind under the title of "Dreamscape". Some of them are included here. I put them together and they seem to allude to something altogether different.

The Shaman calling forth forms from the vast potential of possibilities.

At one point in the days experience I discovered a snail crawling up my window and took about 40 photographs. I deleted at least half of them.
Immediately below is the original picture of the snail and a second photograph. The changes made are seen in the photographs at the bottom of the page.
This is the same snail showing more of it's features. I got the idea the black fiber like thing was food. He seemed to have some kind of interaction with it in different photographs that I took. Maybe it was just in his way. But I did watch him for a while and got the impression he was eating.
Below are altered photos of the snail. I got some good effects. When I do this I have in the back of my mind the idea that I am drawing from the unlimited potential of the 'Tao'. It's a way I have come to live with every passing moment.

I wanted to see if I could make something out of it if I reversed the image and then placed it with the original. For an early attempt I was glad that it came out the way it did. I expect to improve in the future. Paint.net is not Photoshop, but it is a very good tool.
