2nd August 2013 sunflowers

Topic of the Day - Tools of Creativity

This is a shot using my glass sphere which i love to use. As whatever is captured in the glass ball is inverted I often turn the shot upside down. I haven't done that with this one as it didn't look much different. Its fun to use the ball outside and see the world upside down. My sister bought these lovely sunflowers for me today and I couldn't resist using them. I have added a frame in Picmonkey but not sure i like it. I might have another go. Oh well it seems once you have saved it the frame is there. Of course the editing is another tool of creativity - I just need to work out how to use it properly!! LOL!!

Thank you all so much for your wonderful comments and Favs on my shots. I love to read every word!! I have been trying to catch up with all your shots but its so hard as there are so many more being uploaded all the time. I am sorry if I have missed you out and will try to catch up with your shots as soon as I can!!

I love this, Pam. Now I want a glass ball!! My eye says the frame encroaches a little on the great capture, but not enough to keep me from adding it as a fav!
