Let's hope we don't see THAT in real life! The perspective and capture here are BRILLIANT, SSSister. And the background works REALLY well. GREAT job creating this fascinating image. I really love how the sky lits up the reflections and give it color :)

Lou Lou, I just love your creativeness here, and also the spiel on the meteor shower! Some years ago, the southern hemisphere actually got to see this rare event. We sat up all night to see shooting stars zooming everywhere, like fireworks falling to the ground, it was absolutely beautiful. The problem was, the streams were not really strong enough to photograph.

Sister Swanee/Lou Lou! You have more nicknames! Just to keep us on our toes huh? This is a masterpiece! Your creative touch took an ordinary image and turned it into a extraordinary work of art - bravo!

Hi Again my SSSKiki, and Newbies Avril, Colette, Monnie-Monnie-Monnie Monnieeeee, (She doesnt stay attached so I can call her a nick name of my choice! HeeHee! SEE PEOPLE!? You should stay attached and keep an eye on your nicknames you are given!) and also Hello again Jill, Brother John, Debbie- Doobie (? Hmmmm. 60's child??) and Moon Goddess Queen of the Butterflies! First I have to tell you...I usually do not to images of IMPENDING DOOM, if ever, but golly these Hollywood Movies of Dooms Day inspire me to create my own pictures. I have always loved outer-space (no wise cracks please) and am trying my hand at a few things there that have not been posted yet. Next, SSSKiki, I really lucked out with this effect and it emanated color down into the glass wall of the right side there because of those pole stretch gliders they offer on some of the filters there. Stretch and move from points in the center! HA! I just played with the two bars until I got the colors the way they felt right for the illusion of reflection! :D Thanks for noticing! To Debbie: What a night that must have been!?! And to Moon G. : Oh if you only knew all of my pet names. Someday when we both have 30 minutes I will read the list off to you. :))))) Lou Lou was the first one I ever had in my life, BTW. As a little kid. My older Sister was sure I was the Lou Lou (LuLu) that had a tug boat with a bell. Lol... Thank you ALL for the super comments and your great visits. :) I really appreciate them and YOU a lot! -ME! :) <------ Thought I'd make it short for a change. :D

Pom, Pom, Pom. You little genius, you (with a bit of help from your latest toy). I loved this in thumbnail form; then, when the Big Picture appeared, I had to push my jaw back up before I could comment on the image. It is fantastic in every sense of the word. I love the pov, the bold colors, and your self-made "reflections". I faved this one, and I can't wait to see your next creations using your new effects. And, finally, here's a one-word judgement: WINNER!

Oh, Mare! :D Thank you for your REALLY delightful comments!! :) I can only take part credit for these new creations. SSSKiki taught me how to use this neato tool and without her help I'd just be doing macro's of kitty dander or something to pine away the winter hours :D That being said - - - IT REALLY DOES LOOK KINDA COOL, huh!!!? :D I can almost feel that big rock passing over except in my imagination it's going really slowly and just passes us up! :) SO STAR TREK! :D Well, I am feeling inspired. I can't wait to see what this new tool can do, too! :D HeeHee! Thanks so much for each word. All of you! -SSSLala, Swanee, Lou Lou, Rain Pebble, Pommy and let's throw Miss Rose in there, too, since I know Mr. Tree will be along one of these days! :D

Thank you Jo Ann, Lisa and The Judges @ BP! I really appreciate your comments and feedback. -Laura :D P.S. Lisa, I like adding the before image and also really love it when others do as well. I think it helps us appreciate the final product more when we see the original where a person begins.
