@linnypinny Thank you so much for your comment and fav, Lin. This image was created with the Lensbaby Composer Pro with Sweet 50 Optic, and then I applied my camera's built-in cross screen filter to create the starsburst effect. It was a fun learning process.
@cejaanderson Thank you, Jane! This ornament always makes me smile. It was given to me by a friend and is quite a departure from the traditional ornaments I'm usually drawn to. Its happy colors, golden angel, and sentiment have made it one of my favorites.
@milaniet Thank you! Funny you should mention the word 'daring' as that very word occurred to me when I posted this shot. I rarely do much more than crop or brighten or straighten an image, so this was quite daring for me. I'm not very comfortable with it, but 365 is inspiring me to broaden my horizons. I'm excited to see where I'll be after posting 365 pictures!
Thank you, also, for your fav of my poinsettias image! :-)
