Re: something to take your mind off wwpd.

I think there is more esthetic in the images that you're giving
yourself credit for. The images are striking for their doughnut
shapes arranged in intriguing and captivating forms. An excellent
idea and result. It looks like you've used every hole in the salt
shaker lid. Have you tried blocking some with an opaque substance to
see what the image would look like with fewer holes?
