Glorious Sunset

Uploaded: July 11, 2007

Description

f18.0, ISO 200, 1/500, Morning Glory, River Banks Zoo & Gardens, Columbia, SC.

I took my recent entry Morning Star (in my gallery) & added the Sunset filter from VP & the Flood Filter to make it look like the center of the flower was a setting sun over water.

Kara, I don't normally do any effects but I was playing with this one & the colors looked so much like water, I thought I would give it a shot. :)
