Wow, Monika! Like this so very much! I thought it was select de-sat...And I'm still trying to convince myself that it's not! LOL! Excellent! Congrats on your finalist selection! RoB #62035

Robert, thanks for the comment! I found this BLACK grass was very attractive to me a couple of months ago, but last month when I was visited The Botanical Garden again, I saw some green leaves and yellow flowers between them. I chose the place and took my photo, than I adjusted levels and I cropped. That’s it!

Gary – Thank you so much for your nice comment, again! I’m really, really glad you’ve seen something attractive in this photo! Maybe it’s the same thing I saw? ;-)
