Here's a sandstone abstract from the hills near Simi Valley. A thin sheet of water was flowing across the surface of this rock outcrop.
Thanks for looking and comments,

Fantastic Rudy! This is an awesome combination of contrasts - of color, movement, and form. Very nicely done, I would have guessed it was coastal at first.. how cool!

I love this. One of the best abstracts I've seen in a long time. Really like how you composed this for the design contained in it. The lighting and color are appealing. Very aptly titled, too.

Good eye for picking this up. The light is gorgeous and you've captured a perfect balance of cool and warm tones.

Wonderful abstract Rudy. Between the great light, water flow, I can see a few faces in there. Well seen and captured.

Really nice Rudy,
It has a direct positive type look which is nice here for the tones. The patterns are interesting, great eye

Interesting abstract. I like the swirling colors. Almost a sense of something forming from the ooze feeling.

I like this a lot!! It's very textural, like a bronze sculpture.
