What a NEAT image, Laurie!!!! Brilliant setup with super details!!!!! ♫ k #6373066

Nikki McDonald level-classic August 27, 2008 0

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 :) #6373113
