Secret Garden

I used polar coordinates and a texture overlay along w/ Niks Glamour Glow filter. I almost forgot poster edges.
Last PC for awhile-I promise.

Fascinating! I've never tried polar coordinates. This looks like both a garden and the center of a flower. Love the colors and light. Great texture work. Great image.

Denise, this reminds me of Alice in Wonderland! What a great idea and I love the way the fence posts turned out.:)

[Christopher Miller]

Beautiful! I love the rich, golden colors and the fence surrounding the center is just too cool. Beautiful texture and filter work. Very nice idea and well executed! :)

Denise, I'm enjoying your PC images - they are so different and interesting! My first thought about this one was how cool this would look placed into the eye of the contest gannet... :cool: Just a wild guess, but did you capture this with the fish-eye lens?

Thanks folks, I appreciate the kind comments.
Kerry, You are very wise-yes the original image was captured w/ the 15mm fish-eye.

Sweet!

Hi Denise, my eyes wander all around this image, and just love following the fence. The effect and colours are amazing. Another well thoughtout image.:cool:

Outstanding composition, Denise. I like the fence and the green in between. What makes it more interesting for me is the lighting and how it filters through. Great colors. This is my new favorite of yours! Well done.

Denise, this is very, very, very cool. I love how the fence turned out and the trees. Very creative work indeed.
