I manipulated this image for the fun challenge.

I kept playing around with it, and finally decided on this version.

Thank you for your comments, they are most appreciated.

Wow! More textures than you can shake a stick at! Should do well in The B&W Challenge.

The leaf almost melts into the wood - superb texturizing here Sandi!

Neat textures you've applied and its really beautiful Sandi! Full screen is totally different from this thumbnail, so I hope everyone is viewing it full size.

Very artistic and lovely textures and composition and I love the lines in the wood balancing with the Veins in the leaf.
