I don't understand this.

Do we have to?

All I can say is I like it. Not as much as the "photo-graphic" one, but still do.

You keep surprising (me, anyway) with your collages, please keep them coming.

No, we don't have to. My only problem with it is that unlike Pollock's paint dripped on canvas it's too understandable to be auctioned for millions.

Interesting. These look much like dancing men.

But even more than that they remind me logo of Yota, a Russian telecom company (I wonder if they considered similarity between words Yoga and Yota when they were choosing the logo...):

Bob, could you explain what your intent was with this image?  It would certainly help me to appreciate it.

There's a weekly Saturday morning yoga meetup at Siesta Beach. I practiced Iyenger yoga for nearly decade until I had to stop due to health issues. Check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iyengar_Yoga   I liked watching this large group--all were having a good time going through the poses.

The photo doesn't have any particular meaning. I just wanted to produce a lyrical image. It's absurd and abstract. The moon and the circles are sort of ethereal. I had a lot of fun making this picture. This is a large piece. Ideally, it will be hung at least ten feet above the floor in an open, airy interior space.

Thanks for explaining it.  It helps understanding the intention of the artist.

That's exactly what I thought, having done some time with Yoga many years ago. "Absurd and abstract" and "fun" say all that needs to be said.

Delightful.
