    Default Lotus Leaf in black and white

    I use Pixel Bender oil paint, plus Topaz Adjust to bring out a little more detail and then converted it to black and white. I know it's centered but I had to crop it close due to other ones surrounding it.

    I think there's a place for centering, and this is it.

    Judy, This is fantastic! I love the center comp. and the B&W is perfect for this image. The water drops look wild. Nice work:)

    Whatever you did to get the "wave" in those raindrops is incredible! I love how it took such a simple everyday scene and elevated it to a whole other level. The black and white really takes the color out of the equation and leaves you with a pattern and a graphic that really holds your interest. Excellent use of b&w conversion!!!

    Hi Judy, this is really cool. I think you made a good choice in cropping it square.

    Thanks so much to everyone for your comments! I'm glad you like it! Sorry I haven't been around much this week; sometimes other things take precedence over having fun on the forum.
