I found this grill work with a marble just sitting there, then a bit of photoshop fun. Can't remember too many of the adjustments, of which there were many.

If that was a marble, you had even more fun than is obvious. It looks like you played with duplicate layers, a very creative idea. One of the things that really intrigues me -- and which adds a lot of appeal to the image -- is those blue lines going through the grill. Do you recall if you did that with a mask and/or a blend mode? There's a visual tension with the grill and the darker part of the background at the top, but I think that's one of the things that makes this image work so well.

Dennis, I used 2 texture layers. One of them was changed to a blend mode (hard light)?? and the blue came through.

Love the graphic quality of this and the two vibrant colors! The small accents of dark blue and green make this really great! From the oval shape I thought the green things were grapes! Ha, why would a grape be there?:bg3:

Thanks for the comments, I have gotten ahead of myself with themes, and thought we were on Simplicity, I have removed "Theme" from the title. My apologies, things have been busy. I put my Iphone 4s through the washing machine on the weekend. It is very clean, but no longer works. On the other hand my new Iphone 6 is really cool, even the camera:eek3:

Poor iPHone 4s! :-(
Love the colors. Intriguing design. I like the blue going through the red.
