We in southern New England are just plain sick of the rain. June is supposed to be sunny and pleasant. Instead, we're just getting more March--one wet chilly day after another. This rain-spotted maple leaf was clining to the front railing this morning. Cutout did a nice job of reducing it to its basic elements without losing the deatil of the veins.

  3. The weather here is warm, but deary every day. I am ready for some sunshine, too. The filter worked out nicely. I also like the choice of a black background.

  4. I blame the rain on Ron's revenge on me and Tammy. Nice processing - it really needs to be enlarged to fully appreciate.

  5. Well, it's exactly the same weather here in Sweden, so I know how you're feeling.

    Beautiful photo and I love what you've done to it!

  6. Since NJ isn't far from CT, I guess you can imagine that we feel pretty much the same way! I don't recall seeing such a pretty leaf here though! Wonderful processing!
