8/26/2008 6:06:55 PM

What a NEAT image, Laurie!!!! Brilliant setup with super details!!!!! ♫ k

8/26/2008 7:02:23 PM

Very cool set-up and capture, Laurie. This is a very interesting prickly looking flower and the POV makes it even more unusual looking.
Now that BP has removed the drop shadow frames, I'm thinking images like this need a very narrow stroke outline to define their space. My gallery background is black so I'm trying to remember to do a white one when the image background is black or almost black and a black outline when the image background is white or almost white. Kind of a nuisance :)

8/26/2008 7:12:03 PM

Fantastic image. Really outstanding.

8/26/2008 7:26:59 PM

WAY COOL Laurie!!! FANTASTIC!!!

8/26/2008 7:50:48 PM

8/27/2008 9:39:45 PM

Excellent! Very creative! I agree with Nikki that it may look even better with a narrow black (or green?) outline

8/31/2008 1:21:21 PM

Fantastic high key image Laurie.
