A mundane fountain at the entrance to a park in New Orleans is transformed by the pre-dawn light (and Paint Shop Pro!) to an angel's dance. Shot with a Panasonic Lummox 12x zoom. Powerlines removed by Paint Shop Pro 8.

#9 in the South Louisiana Series

However you did it, this is a great shot. Very lush and atmospheric. Are those Lillies of the Nile in the foreground?

Thanks Kiley, ninja, and dreamer. Yes they are lillies of the nile, and the dense, humid, morning air brought all the flowers in the park into bloom which gave the lovely frame around the bottom of the photo.

I know most of ya'll already know how to use Paintshop to remove objects from photos, but anyone else can send me a personal message and I'll be glad to share the technique.
