Turning Of The Week for October 7, 2024

[Odie]

It's been a while since one of the many fine basket illusion turnings in the AAW gallery has been chosen for the TOTW. This one by Karl Hansen just got more intricate the closer I looked.

Beautifully executed!

.....so, it was an easy choice for the next Turning Of The Week.......
