Castor Bean Leaf

This Castor Bean leaf was lit by direct sunlight and was just glowing.

The Everglades waterway is underneath the leaf and it didn't look to

bad as it was. However, in CS3 I used the liquify filter to add a more

abstract water appearance. Your comments are always welcome!

Great composition. The flowing back - the deep green. BR Joerg

Thank you for your comments!

Beautiful composition, colours and work.

Leo, this is really cool! The leaf detail is super and the contrasting blue in the background really brings out the green. Do like the CS3 liquify filter! Super capture...RAY

Simply gorgeous, very good the liquid efect.

I just tried to rate this, and to my surprise I already had rated it some time ago. I wonder why I didn't leave a comment then? Oh well. Gosh, this reminds me of my photo of the fern frond that you just commented on. The leaf is striking, and it's so beautifully illuminated. This would look so stunning enlarged and put on the wall in a Florida room (that's what we call them.....don't know what you call them down there). :-) I appreciate your email and recent comments on my photos!

MY! MY! Creative genius at work!

You're too kind Tony, but thank you all the same.
