That author pointed out all those things and was spending his own time sitting in a restaurant by a river right where it flowed over a drop, so kind of a small waterfall or at least a rapids. The more you look, he said, the more variation you see... I don't even want to get into air flow!<br /><br />As for my red pen, I think you are right about that too. I really inked in those leaves whereas the reeds were drawn with a lighter touch. Plus, outlining the red in black affects how it looks too. When I looked at the actual page again, I decided the scan wasn't as far off as I thought.The Idaho Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979439849662755082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19193398.post-57954707200304611552017-04-06T13:59:38.059-07:002017-04-06T13:59:38.059-07:00I like your dance marks.

Water will flow fairly straight until it hits an obstacle like a rock and the flow gets very complicated. (Eddies) Changes in elevation and depth also change things. Lots to observe. Air flow is just as complicated. <br /><br />The density of the red in your leaves appears to be more dense and more covering of the white paper. The grasses have less coverage allowing the white to show through somewhat. That might have something to do with their different appearance. Or how the light was reflected off of the page when the image was photographed.Christine Staverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15411569621417693487noreply@blogger.com
