Sometimes I like to jazz-up a pic purely to make it somewhat different to the norm. Roses are always beautiful 'au naturelle' but I liked the impact of the colourful effect on this one.
My go to post processing is usually done with Paintshop Pro , but I used 'Smart Photo Editor' for this pic. They have hundreds of instant artistic effects to choose from, which themselves can be altered/ adjusted to your own taste. They are effects that have been submitted by the site's users. It's great fun and gets the creative juices flowing.

An American Crow takes off from high atop the pine tree, and I was fortunate enough to capture him in flight as he did.

“Capturing A Season” in photographs is rewarding when looking back on the day or the moments you’ve shared. Feeling like you’re in touch with Nature and all four seasons. Whether getting dirty weeding or planting you feel that special connection to the Earth whereas you are “Capturing A Season.” Continue to do so and you’ll feel the rewards.
Thanks for viewing my work. Stay safe and stay kind. Your hands? You know already Wash’em up people,:-)
When I saw this guy aiming at the setting sun I hoped I would get a "starburst" if I positioned myself correctly, and voila! He moved his arm a few times and it finally worked. f/18 and ISO 400.
Was out in the garden with one of my wee hearts and as i passed this spiders web, I wondered if the heart would get stuck in the web...and it did. Although the spider was none too pleased, more of which later on.

Friendship & Vision emanate at Founders Corner...
Life-size bronze sculptures were unveiled earlier today of Mr Alan Bond and Mr Harunori Takahashi, who shared a vision which became reality... that of Bond University.
Alan Bond, 1987:
'The establishment of Bond University will herald innovation. It will be a practical University. Bond University will set new standards in excellence for other institutions to copy and follow.
'It will be bold and pioneering, resourceful and determined. Its graduates will have demonstrated they are hard workers and will be in demand around the world.
'Bond University will always look and plan for the future - a future where Australia is a partner in business ventures and joint developments throughout the global village.
'Bond University is now in place. Vision has become reality. The way is now - ahead.'
Harunori Takahashi, 1987:
'We are able to join with Australia in the project of Bond University with the highest aspirations and motivation to set new standards of achievement.
'Bond University will offer education in a specialised way to Australia and to other countries, enabling its students to take their place in a world of rapid technological change and equip them to Take advantage of technology to reach out and achieve new goals and new horizons.
'We are honoured to be a partner in a venture which marks an historic new milestone in Japanese-Australian friendship and co-operation.'
The Nigella (Love-in-a-mist) have been very prolific this year. This flower bud was taken in the middle of a Nigella forest on the drive of my daughter’s home.
They’re a really odd plant to look at, with spiky leaves and strange flowers, and even stranger seedheads. Very alien.
This was cooked, monochromed and blue-toned using Silver Efex. Before that, though, it had a fair bit of prestidigitation in Viveza and Color Efex, and it was finished off with Topaz DeNoise. In other words I was having too much fun playing. I hope you like the result, though, a heart in a cage.
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Donnerstagsmonochrom :)
