I sure cannot make out what the object is but it reminds me of an egg being fried. I suppose it is that yellow area that does that.
I like this as an abstract and could easily see it displayed on the wall of a modernistic apartment as art!
Best to you,
Dave

Very interesting, you make fast motion on the flower and again you manage to put the center of the orange colored flower at the corner of the image, perfectly artwork on that, and nice curved motion blur.
Best regards!!!

I did understand you this way, Mahassa, but my message obviously didn't make it that clear. I was trying to continue on this, by building up a more or less "rational" explanation, and examples that should show the none-artistic nature of unconscious work.
As you say, the intention might be unconscious, and it is perhaps unconscious many, many, many times, but the work should be conscious, in order to transport what is burried in mind/fantasy/souls/whatever onto a piece of arts. It is only then, I think, that the artist would accept the own work, when it agrees with that intention - be it conscious or unconscious.
But I must admit, that I also felt (and still feel) the necessity to ventile out some of my anger when I see that many too many here just "play around with coincidense" just because PS offers so many filters, and then post the results expecting them to be accepted as great work! ;-) Sincerely, at your work, I thought that it is exactly the right example for enhancing the difference between creation and coinscidence.
Perhaps this should be taken as a discussion subject in the forum, though a predict a great number of exposions in this minefield. ;-)
Best wishes,
Nick

Dear Nick I think you didn't exactly or maybe I should say correctly get my words. I didn't mean that if you get a result by random and just coincidentally it is valuable,but that the intention is almost unconscious in an artist's mind,though the technique and the knowledge should be perfectly known and skillful.
take care, mahassa

Hi Mahassa and thanks a lot for the reply.
There are many kinds of intention in arts. One of them ist the usual thing - to carry something in mind for some time and to try to somehow make it real. This is explicit intention but this is not the only one.
Another kind of intention is that that somehow goes backwards and is used for filtering out the things we do and we don't like at the end. When for example there are 20 images somebody tooks and he/she separates the 19 uninteresting from the one he/she finds good. It works like "recalling" and taking advice from the personal taste, the character, the own approach, and the like things that are also in action when the other kind of intention, the explicit intention, takes place. This kind of intention might be called "implicit" or "a posteriori". Alone the fact that somebody finds some image nice and some other stupid after having shot them implies that there is much of that filtering based on the own "measure".
If there would be not any intention at all, well let's apply that to the whole range of arts. Let's allow some musician/componist to simply play/write this and that note totally randomly and expect that this will be a nice piece of music. Or let's allow some author write letters per coincidense and expect it to be a great poem. It is not impossible to do something good put of coinsidence this way but it is immensly unlikely. And above all, such a result is not the work of the artist but rather the work of coincidental randomness.
The reason for the fact that any coincidental image can be considered a nice one is not that it has to do with artistic work, but rather that vision is the most "robust" sense. It can catch almost anything. This is why there are usually much more words available to describe something we see than for example something we taste. Alone for the color names we have thousands of possibilities while there are only some few words for taste, though there are much more different tastes than these few words might imply.
So, even if it hits my mind, it doesn't automatically mean that it is artistic work. A coincidental work, like for example some wonderful rock that was morphed by wind and water for thousends of years is not arts. It is coincidense or natural necessity but it is not *artificially* made, with is where the work arts comes from. Artificial and thus conscious.
Best wishes and keep it up,
Nick

I believe the important thing in an artwork is NOT the intention, but its effect on your eyes, your mind and your soul...I'm so glad that it hit your mind. that's what I wish to be able to do with an artwork.
all the best, mahassa

Interesting in a very sub-conscious way to me, that doesn't allow me to make any interpretation at all, except perhaps some kind of a view of something very fast for a split of a second, that hits the mind more than it hits the eye.
May I ask you what your intention was behind this, Mahassa?
Best wishes,
Nick
