Lovely photo, John. I can't help but be drawn into its unique perspective. The decision to capture the cross beam of a gantry crane through a kaleidoscope lens is wonderful. It breathes life and dynamism into this industrial subject. You've taken the composition a step further by going diagonal. This fills the image with an undeniable energy. It's as if you've infused movement and vibrancy into the scene. It's compelling. And the color tones - ah lovely! warm, inviting, and totally unexpected for an industrial setting. They make your subject seem less like cold, unfeeling metal and more like a living, breathing entity. Way to go, John! In a nutshell, you've taken an everyday object and, through your lens, transformed it into a piece of art. It's a testament to your vision and creativity. And for that, you should be incredibly proud. #12035508
