This composition was originally entitled  “Spiraloid”, which sounded a bit mundane. But the California Roll I just finished for lunch gave me some renewed inspiration as the unearthly lingering of that most hallowed of Japanese condiments continues to inflict it’s spicy carnage on my defenseless palate. Yummy,  though.

A product of some experimentation with blurs and lens flare techniques, I’m sure the trekkie fans in the audience – yes, both of them- will heartily reprimand me for passing on such a begging opportunity to meld their beloved Starship Enterprise into the comp. But given the astronomical scope of the image, I can only say, “Wasabi, shall be…”

…And somebody please pass the milk.
