A failed attempt...

But I made the most of it by adding a bit of texture in On1-10. Shot in monochrome mode, my goal was to shoot down inside the seed pods. Not there - yet! I think I used the macro lens for this, but not sure... Oh well! Just getting old.

A very nice image I like the focus on the edges on what looks to me like flowers.

[Susan Wakely]

I can imagine you using this as a future composite.

[Mags]

@cocobella Thank you, Corinne!

@wakelys It's a composite now. LOL! I've been working on so many lately. What shall I do with it? =)

[Susan Wakely]

@marlboromaam I am imagining some of your fairy magic.

[Corinne C]

It's a beautiful image with the intricate leaves coming out of the bokeh.

@wakelys Oh! Okay. I'll see what I can come up with. =)

@corinnec Thank you so much, Corinne.

Never say old. You are mature. I am going to be 72 in a couple of weeks and I never will admit to old. You have a lovely image here.
