OUT OF THE FIRE

"Out of the Fire" (10-4-14 008v2e) was morphed several days ago from a very old photo. (During my on-going archiving/deleting project.) This is another of the many sorts of flora around here that I enjoy looking at. And when I manage to get a good shot of any of them, all to the better. I know it must seem odd to say that, given how much post processing I almost always do. I.e., can't I then deal with any problem that might come up by making it more artsy, even abstract? Well, that's a logical assumption, but it's not how it works out all to often. Sometimes you simply can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. That's not to say I think this pic is anywhere near being a silk purse. But it's OK enough for me to enjoy and to post.
