Up in the Sky . . .

No birds, no planes-just a tree

and after some texturing and manipulating with RadLab, here is the finished image:

One thing I am learning (again) about doing a photo a day is that is it much easier to let the images go–and that it turn allows me to make “happy mistakes.” You just never know where it might lead you.

  1. I like the original just as much as the finished product. I’m beginning to like this zone plate thingy!!
    Beautiful!
