violin vortex

The word was 'musical' in honour of unusual musical instrument day. (Where does he find them?!) I found a white violin on the stairs and took a shot of it on the lawn but it looked very samey. Went a bit mad in ribbet after a committee meeting and 2 glasses of red on the hottest day of the year so far... can't remember all I did but most of it was in the 'sandbox' section and included changing the levels of the effect. If I had my wish the violin would sound as rhythmic and swirly as this rather than the plinky sound I usually hear... (but don't tell the kids I said so!)
Almost caught up for July, want to thank everyone who called by to view or comment on or worry about the mice or sparkly heart! You are very kind and I'd like to reassure that no mice were harmed in the making of that photo (or flan).
August sees the last days of my 2nd year plus my week's holiday in Scotland, so I'll watch those joining in with the themes with interest while doing my own thing. Humoungous thanks to Graham (aka Bulldog) and everyone who contributes to the word suggestions - they certainly got me thinking this time! Keep cool and well, everyone! :)
A VERY COOL AVANT GARDE SHOT!! I love this! FAV.

Great shot and processing, Phil! :) Sounds like you have a very active house! Violins on the stairs and mice in the oven?? I want to come visit! It sounds like so much fun! Very good job on this shot!
