This is very striking and very Morris Louissy' except that in agreement with Kiki_2 would be up there with his best. (.. being ignorant of his work... I Googled and did my homework...)
and....
I am most impressed that you achieved this with your photographic equipment without resorting to PP 'tricks'. Kudos +++
Fantastic work ~ Regards Melbob.

I really like this one. Very nice photo-variant of the artists work. Whatever you do - do not smudge! Had to look him up btw, he was unknown to me. If this had actually been his own, I would have ranked it amongst his better work :) Love the effect.

OPS! I inadvertently deleted Daniel's nice comment! I liked his compliment and am sorry I lost it. shu

Thank you J and Daniel. I will leave this as is since I like it. Originally called "Vertical Fashes," I believe the effect of the vertical lines will be diminished if a smudge tool is used. The camera was moved vertically along a row of colored glass and the effect is as if one loaded his brush with color and created vertical color streaks to create a brightly colored painting. shu

When I see glass masterly photographed, my brain goes "shu!" Well done! Regards jnconradie

I googled Mr. Louis....interesting. I know what you are trying to do here...but I wonder if you don't want to try to push the envelope a little and make it a true Moris Louis:

A simple smudge tool and color balance to Pastel-ize this might get you there.

But entirely your decision to be sure.

I'm just thinking out loud.

Best Wishes, Traveller
