The colours and the intimacy of the enfolding circular swirling composition remind of a Samual Palmer engraving.
This isn't the one, but this has the same sort of feel.

Going through the wealth of your portfolio is like reading a really satisfying classic novel and when the last photo is viewed...a big ::sigh:: of bittersweet regret at the close of the last page. Looking forward to all the sequels...;-)

That is truly one of the most spectacular works of art I've ever seen. Reminiscent of Van Gogh but with an Impresionism twist. This is glorious.
