"All art is but imitation of nature."
~Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Rose (source image linked), added the cracks manually, selected areas and then gray scaled them. Star field in background is my own image. Basically I was trying to show two things in the rose, nature and art, in this case, a stone statue chipped from the rose itself. There is more of the rose then the statue because, as the quote says art imitates nature. Please feel free to view High Res Image. (2 years and 107 days ago)
