The original image is the pond and lotus pads; added are the large rain drops (where I stopped in an earlier version). In this final image I've decided to add the frog and the puddle.

Digitally rippled photo of the great big glass canopy across Pike street at the Convention center (with a little water and mirror filter thrown in as well).

Follow me home and we'll have a "mug-up".

Wishing all of my Flickr friends a wonderfully happy weekend.

Using images I would normally have deleted. The forest colors were overexposed by the extremely bright sunshine and the water was bleached white. Readjusting the color tones, adding a new water surface from another shot and inserting the tree on the right for color balance has turned a forgettable image into a keeper... maybe (The camera settings belong to the main image of the forest only).
