I love this picture. But somehow, I get a feeling that it is photoshopped. Is it, or you took it with an infrared camera? Anyway, a nice piece of art. Keep it up.

I pulled it into Picassa and put it in high-contrast black and white, so yes, it’s been tampered with. Thanks for the comment and thanks for visiting the blog.

interesting.. why do you call it spinoza?

I guess because it feels like philosophy to me. Contrasts of opposites, the form of the human, also a sort of image that appears to be forms collected near each other in space, which is what I think of philosophy that attempts to order human experience. Plus, it’s sort of friendly, like Spinoza. But I named it in a sort of trance- there wasn’t a lot of linear thought put into the naming, so I am sort of explaining it after-that-fact.
