How did you achieve that affect? was that straight from the camera or did you do some PP work? Hi Shaggy, Thank you for your kind comments. All of my photos have some post processing adjustments. This is no exception. I do not put in things that were not there but I will make tone, luminance, contrast and saturation adjustments to make the image reflect what I felt at the time I took the image. Glad you enjoyed it. Stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just call them Mrs Shaggy's shin wreckers Really nice, clear image. Had you not told me it was a flower (or land mine) I would have been scratching my head to figure this one out! It could have been a really weird caterpillar or the like! Anyway, really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a cactus mutant grafted on to what looks like Euphorbia ...( I know you know exactly what that is!! ) quite common, to see... perhaps not that large!...

Tywais Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Just saw these suddenly popped up in our front yard. Believe orchids? I know we have a lot of orchid plants around but seem to be slow in blooming. Three large groups of them together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
