Hey, they're beautiful. I'm not above a nice poetic poster. The images though seem to take the lead over the words in these moments.

These are gorgeous, Nate. I love a poem that paints a picture for me; but when you can find a picture that perfectly complements the one the poem has painted, that's amazing. Nice work!

Thanks for your feedback. That's obviously something to consider. I'm also pondering other forms. Words on white, and an accompanying insert.

I think as a whole, pictures will grab a person's eyes, and it would be interesting to know if the meaning would then get lost?

But in a sense, it could also be like when you met that lovely person, and then found out they also had a sense of humor. What was inside wasn't what made you look, but what kept you looking???

is pretty cool. does it have a title?--s6

Thanks for the comments. No, these are just prototypes of what I want to eventually do. I have hundreds of combinations, and planned to eventually ask some editor/publisher friends to give me feedback before I finally do something with these.

I'm waiting until I complete the novel projects which are on the frontburner. This is a backburner thing.
