Lotus Pod
Finalist
I applied a slight digital Orton effect to this capture of a lotus pod. The green curve in the background defines a lily pad in the pond where I found this.

This is wonderful, Nikki! Such gorgeous color and detail--and the Orton keeps it from being too "clinical" in detail. I love these lotus pods!
