Orbs - in and around the Garden

Another perfect orb!

... because colour this rich deserves to be played with!

Was taught this trick by another fellow photo friend.... Start with a square-cropped image. In photo editing software ( I use PS:elements) do these three steps; 1) Under the "Filters" menu, select "Distort" > and then select "Polar Coordinates." >> and the "Convert Polar to Rectangle" option 2) Flip the distorted image (180˚)
 to bring it back right side up. 3) Again, go under the "Filters" menu, and select "Distort" > and then select "Polar Coordinates." >> and this time use the the "Convert Rectangle to Polar" option. Save your pretty orb.... ;-)

the foyer sports a large crystal chandelier... this is taken standing directly under it. ;-)
