Description

This is what happens when one gets bored and tries to be creative. I did about a zillion different things to this shot, changed my mind just as many. Somehow I got a great effect by adjusting the hue and saturating the heck out of it. I adjusted about every level known to man in photoshop. I used diffuse glow to give softness and did alot of touch up where the glow softened too much. I can honestly say, if I were to try and do this again and get this result, I'd probably fail. Guess that makes this a one of a kind :)

Wow, If at first you don't succeed... this really is great, Karen. Way to hang in there. At least you know how to use the tools. Nice job! #2346242
