The morning light on Saturday was kind to my camera; here's an unusual and rather graceful succulent...

Well, I see the site is back up and running again.

No doubt that took some trouble-shooting and hard work by Don - thank you, sir.

Good Eye Dave,
Yes, Graceful....
I get to play with curves and create a pattern with colour.

Nice work both of you.


The dark side of the orange.

Thanks Grant and MFI.

Grant, it looks like your image is based on another ice-on-glass photo. Very nice work. Interesting detail, strong colors and values.

MFI. I'm not aware that you are into digital manips so I'm guessing your image is more of a straight photo. Well spotted, great clarity and colors and sharpness - a remarkable image.

I used to do some manipulating in back in PS2 days but with subsequent computer changes none of that works anymore. Could probably still play with that on an old computer maybe.
This and others I did were during a short period of ennui where I saw a bottle of water on the table with a few bubbles and I placed an orange behind the bottle. The green is coming in from the garden outside. Not all of them turned out as well as I would like.
