A wonderfully energetic image, Rob. There's something about it that reminds me of the roiling surface of our Sun.
I can also see numerous faces in it and the more one looks, the more one finds. I guess it's just my pareidolia (or was that paranoia) setting in.

Roiling and pareidolia in one post…I need to sit down!

Thanks, Ralph.

Haha. Well, that's me, a veritable walking dictionary... um, I wish!

I thought it was a bison's back at first. A bison full of energy.

A split son would have no energy… But I can see what you mean, Gianluca, and the same thought flashed through and out of my mind when I first saw it on the iMac screen.

Sorry, I suppose there's a language or cultural barrier in place here. What's a 'split son' in this context?

great contrast. i thought it was an animal's fur too, at first. after a few more seconds of looking i decided it was water.

I like that ambiguity.
