Seeing 2012 (#8)

For your consideration: geometric abstractions derived entirely from the play of light upon an object in an expected orientation.

There is much which can be mined in this canvass, if one is willing to linger and play . . .

An unknown creature's cry for help? A thermal mapping of an archer's aim? Juxtaposed planets, moons and rings?

Derived from whole cloth or metallic milling, the reality is subordinate to the pleasure of the contemplations to be plumbed; as with many things one's final interpretation of the visual evidence is likely to be illusionary.
