Rings of Gold... [Contest Finalists May 2007]
Uploaded: May 03, 2007 03:37:25
Hi, I took a picture of the glass on a door and adjusted the color to gold in Elements. I sharpened, added diffuse glow for shine, and added the best radial blur at the maximum intensity. This was just for fun. Please comment and critique as you see fit and have a super blessed day!!!

Wow - I am truly flattered by all of the compliments left here! I had no idea it would be a successful image - I just thought it was cool. :-) I did want to note on the glass that it wasn't clear, it had a design - that's why there is so much variation in the gold tones.
