Irina Souiki says:

Poze : Gabriel, tu esti? Ca m-am pierdut in conturile voastre de la Flickr. :-)

Adevarul este ca numai o fotografie a ajuns in TOP 10 de cind s-a infiintat "Interestingness", asa ca... nu, nu sint obisnuita, si nici macar nu stiu cind se intimpla inainte ca cineva sa-mi spuna.

scorpia22 says:

an instant fave. purple is such a difficult color. this is poetry, static and flowing at the same time; showing both periodicity and nonlinearity. i especially like the droplets that are not in focus.
