Someone suggested I should add some bleach to my mix when editing. Or maybe it was cut back on the bleach. In any event this is one of the final results. Otherwise you'd be staring at some bright and cheery yellows and some vibrant greens. And we couldn't have that. Well you could but I'd have to post the unedited version. I'm not too sure about the vignetting this filter claims to have added. I was told I could position it where I wanted it, but I just ain't seeing it where I thought I put it. I might have to run through those steps again.

Anyways, these are definitely flowers. Just not sure what kind.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

Looks like you mixed the Clorox just about right Wendell. I hope it didn't spill over on the white ones. You need a fishnet filter. It is a cross between fisheye and vignetting and adds some distortion that is right up your alley.
Good shot of the flowers by the way.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

appear to be somewhere in the daisy family ( maybe the relatives they don't speak of) - interesting effect.

Reminds me of what I ran into with the stagecoach
while using Topaz Adjust. The perimeter vignetting was ok, but took awhile to find the settings to keep the stage at the right density.

I see the vignetting. It's very small and is in a rectangular area about 1/4" by 3/8" in the upper left. Nice detail work and an interesting shot except for the extreme color oversaturation. :-)

Great shot. I very much like color tones here. The texture and composition make for a fine image! ..thanks...

Wendell - I like the effect. It offers a different view of the blooms. Thad

It is interesting how we can look at the same thing in an unexpected color and see a totally different image. Interesting.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
