I am loving these photo effects!  They are like paintings and I have been using them for my wallpaper, changing them often.  When I open my computer, I have a beautiful picture.  Thanks

Prairiesky, you don't want this one. It might make you dizzy.  Smiley

This might not qualify as a special effects photo. I did not manipulate it in any way. I took it with an iPhone app that has tons of special effects options. Let me know if this is not allowed here. However, one could say I did add some effects...the blurriness is all mine.  Cheesy

I stated at the outset of this thread that the photos should be your own, but now that I think about it, what if you mess with your dh's or dw's photo, or someone else's (which you have permission to use)? I think that's fine.

As to the "effects," Cobbie, I too posted one on the previous page of a bee digging pollen out of a prickly pear flower that was (1) so peculiar as to make one wonder, and (2) totally unmessed with, except for being cropped close.

Now that I think of it, the "effects" idea really applies to how we perceive the photo, doesn't it? Not necessarily what has been done or not done to it. I have a shot of green yucca leaves somewhere on the Boards (I'll never find it again) with the sun shining through them that is quite abstract, yet unchanged. I see no problem with posts like that.

Wait! I found it! This is repeated somewhere else on the Boards, so sue me:

These are from a series I did on the old rural German/Czech/Polish Texas dance halls. Some are over 100 years old, and still in frequent use, for weddings, parties, quinceañeras, and so on. They're maintained by the communities around them. Some are 6- or 8-sided, and feature spectacular joinery. Most have barbecue pavilions nearby. Originally they featured shutters around the side that could be raised for ventilation. Ceiling fans are common, too, though a few have been modernized with air conditioning. The cupolas were to let the warm air out.

BrassMan, Chech dances are fun!

Same flowers, different applications and colorations. Luckily, my neighborhood grocery store doesn't mind.  Smiley
