This photomontage is created from the yellow watermelon seen in previous post and a tiny blooming barrel cactus I photographed in Mexico. Both images were circular so they fit together nicely to create what appears to me to be a stained-glass-comet all thanks to alchemy of Pixlr
Ain’t Nature Grand!
Take a look at the next image, straight from the native camera on my iPhone, all I did was crop out most of the power line.

Love to hear what you think

A ‘stained-glass-comet’ is a good description for this photo, Carol. Nice editing.

I know it’s time to stop editing when descriptive words come to me. Thanks for noticing

Good point. A picture can equal a thousand words, but a thousand-plus words do not make a picture.

Carol, your portrait of a cactus is almost an abstraction that pulls me into its design. The cloudscape make some smile and feel good. It’s a playful sky. Happy Photo Challenge.

Playful sky yes. We have had just fog for weeks so the puffy clouds made me happy for sure.
Cactus portrait maybe so. Had to do something to take both images out of the ordinary to create an emotional response

Carol, I really like the first image. It’s very different but lovely. I like the way the black spines and the pink flower stand out.

The cactus image was so ordinary it needed to be enhanced to give power to the courage of the tiny flower. thanks for noticing!
