WOW Marinus, you hit a grand slam with this one. The design, colors, and details are all awesome. Good diagonal lines. Very Well done. :toast: :toast:

To all the macro posters, the macro forums comment rate is up, and I know everyone likes having their images commented on so lets keep this up. We have some good macro people posting some very nice images so let them know. Thanks.

Just beautiful Marinus. I like the subtle colors and patters as well as the undulating feeling that is present.

Quite interesting and a great post.
