At the Dentist's Office
----
One of my old dental crowns came loose, so I made an appointment to get it re-cemented. Lo and Behold...I wound up needing an emergency molar extraction on the opposite side of my jaw! (AND a NEW crown). Another tooth from HELL, and there had been NO PAIN--up to now.

But...going from the ridiculous to the sublime, this massive display of cone flowers (and other beauties) are in the lush garden near the office entrance. All I had was my iPhone, which has no controls for lighting.

I used several different oil-painting filters, including TOPAZ "Simplify" and Photoshop's "Oil Painting" filter, and blended the layers with the original shot. The result elicited a smile, even though the Novacaine (R) had not yet worn off!
