Thank you very much Neil, Lauren and Danielle. I had taken the picture a year ago and for some reason I didn't think much of it. Then a couple of days ago I'm looking at it and realized the cracked surface was really cool and interesting.
I too love that "cracked" pattern!
I agree with Neil! A wonderful piece of art. You should frame this one.
Perfect natural abstract art. Better than anything I could ever do. Such a cool spotting, Brian.
