    A lot of this could probably fit in the "holy macro" forum. I really like #3.
    Please feel free to post any reworks you do of my images. Crop, skew, munge, edit, share.

    Thanks for the post. #6 is a Lightroom 3 Preset in the development tab called "Creative Split Tone 4.
    I have applied it to several photos from my vacation cruise to Alaska a couple of years back. It does nice things.

    Thanks for the post. Glad to hear you enjoyed #3. The photo was taken at the Dallas Arboretum. As you can see it got a going over in Lightroom. There are moments at the Arboretum when the misters are going that it starts to feel like the photo.

    I have a tough time deciding which I like best, but it is so nice to hear other opinions about them.

    Thanks for looking and the comments.

    Glad to know I got the right place the first time. #3 is doing well on this post, it is one of my favorites.

    Richard would this be the right place for flowers? - I shoot them frequently.

    #2 was part of an effort to photograph the Dallas Arboretum in winter. Lots of things out there pass on and leave wonderful dry sculptures. You just have to be there before the ground crews start their winter make over.

    Central Texas is a great area. I love to travel the area. Have seen some amazing blue bonnet displays down there.

    Thanks for looking in again. Of all the sore thumbs you can have this is probably the best one I have had.

    In general, yes. Very close, magnified detail shots should go to the Macro forum probably, but we won't punish you if you post them here. mwink.gif
