Man Made, Nature Inspired

Is there no greater artist than nature herself? We see her brilliant works everywhere -- spectacular sunsets and sunrises, serene mountain-scapes, beautiful waterfalls and rivers, and, of course, meadows of flowers and forests of trees. For this journal feature I have selected works by photomanip artists (myself included) whose art, while being man-made, leave little doubt where the inspiration for it came from.
