Whether to eat or scream is the question. From Dante's Inferno: “Hope not ever to see Heaven. I have come to lead you to the other shore; into eternal darkness; into fire and into ice.”

Digital photography and digital manipulation can reveal details the human eye is unable to perceive. The depth of this hidden detail is tremendous and always surprising, being composed of more color, more line and more shape, seemingly unrelated to the subject. The dots, lines and shapes in this image originated in an image of a slowly flowing brook.
