    I took a blur image of some reeds in the early morning from Jim Neiger's boat. Artie took me out with Jim and we had some great photo opps. of Snail Kites and Barred Owls. Jim gets you right up close. It was an amazing experience.:)

    I first adj. the color w/ Topaz Simplify-2 rounds, buzz and hard color
    Then polar co-ordinates, then cropped in half and flipped
    Then free transform>warp

    I thought I saw an Easter Bunny in there:p Or maybe I'm just seeing things:)

    Oh yeah, that is definitely the easter bunny surrounded by the color of egg yolks! He must be very happy in his new home!

    I love these images of yours, Denise. I think they are some of your most unique images...the way you do this mystifies me. I always end up with a garbled mess.

    Looks like a macro of the centre of a flower with long filaments flowing from the centre, I actually see a bird face a beak...I guess each eye sees something different..a mark of a good image, well done

    Love the colours and the composition - brightest part in the centre really draws the eye in.

    Denise, the colors in the bg are heavenly. I'm with Paul - the first thing I saw was an iris.:)

    How you got from the reeds to the bunny rabbit (or ***** cat???) mystifies me. It is, however, pretty darned cool.
