...someone wants to say hello to you😀 P.S. I hope it's OK? the plan was a black thin frame, but I took the advice, on the spot. Thank you very much, once again.

Dear M. this is perfectionism.
It's unbelievable that it's a collage. Perfectly technical. About the artistic moment: you have created some incredible dynamics. My personal impression is that everything in the picture is moving, like a music video, an animated film.
thanks a lot.

Yes innovation, except if the theory of synchronicity does not demate.🤔😀
I am joking of course.
Well done. Both the idea and the realization
