Why not indeed?

Do you take a proprietorial interest?

Ah! of course I get it now.

The spelling of glycocalyx is a pointer as well, I believe.
I really like that image. It tickles my fancy.

Oh no, not at all!

What I find so fascinating in this image is its play with micro- and 
macroscopic, where the two worlds indeed are able to merge perfectly. As 
I see it, the islands with cows are an exact representation of a certain 
landscape in NL: Waterland, North of Amsterdam, and at the same time the 
waterways are the microscopic representations of blood vessels. Very 
smart indeed.

I particularly like the rubber boat blood cells :-)

Deeply symbolic with a touch of surrealism. An good to look at too.

That looks really nice. Water could use some work though.

Water has never been the subject of this proof of concept :-D

Thanks, a friend of mine was working on the glococalyx. I know the area 
around Waterland well, because I am living close by. So when I connected 
the two, I just had to make this image.

Possibly one of the last original images I made. After that I did things 
with POV but mainly variations on a theme. I suffered from a sever case 
of real life. I should have more time now (for reasons that are 
off-topic), so hopefully I get some more inspiration. OTOH even without 
a job my time seems completely filled.

Thanks again and sorry for hijacking your thread.
