For Keith, because he set a few of us craklin' :) The Original is Here for anyone interested, I think some of you will prefer it. I will post how I did it below. Any comments you care to leave will be most welcome and appreciated, as always.

Great job, Lyn. The colors are a bit extreme but I suppose you wanted it that way. Personally I prefer the color of the original. But this is a beauty too, and it literally glows!

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

I saw the the discussion about water droplets over on the discussion board, and I was wondering if you used sucrose or soap bubbles, but I see from your info that you just used effects. Turned out eye catching, Eve!!

Cornelius was here! (lol) Click HERE to see his work!
Got this one in the VB... I love it (gave it 9). Thanks for the details on how you did this. Cloning the extra drops of water was a great idea and works very well here. Kudos!

I prefer this one for the intense drama it evokes. I love deep reds and the extra raindrops was a great idea. You sure put a lot into this one and it was worth it. You should let us in on the cracklin'. lol

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

I really like that you made it a more dramatic red colour it stands out more than the original and I love what you did with the droplets, lovely!
