Gorgeous.

In a superficial way, these beautiful images can be compared to abstract, modern art, except for the fact that modern art is entirely worthless.

Why is that? I can only guess that somehow we sense a deep, mysterious order to what appears, at least superficially, to be disordered. Any other ideas?

"...modern art is entirely worthless."

Boy, that's an obnoxious statement. What's YOUR definition of modern art? Is Impressionism worthless? How about artists like Whistler, Turner, Henry Moore, Gauguin, Edward Weston, Richard Estes, Dali, etc. etc.? You do know they, among others, are all considered modernists?
