Orbs

The top photo of blooming Amaryllis

morphs into an orb

(playing with Photoshop, which I blame on Lori Skoog)

and

the sunset morphs into an orb

and leashes, too.

Now I'm really going to get to work.

Really.

You?

You have probably all been proficient with Photoshop for ages, but I am just beginning to explore its possibilities. Today I'm particularly enchanted with the painterly effects, as in the above, using an original photograph of an Iris border on the TASIS campus in England.

Any suggestions for what I might try next with Photoshop?

And do painter or photographer purists scorn this program or embrace it, do you know?
