Such a fantastic piece of art, Patrik. When I saw the thumbnail, it appeared as if it was a capture of a landscape, a musturd field or something ; ) It surprised the hell out of me... Paper Towels... Oh Come'On.You are trully an artisit, and surely gifted with an eye to see the extraordinary within the most unappealing subjects.
Great work.
