 Stuck for a title so....its....sorry MK...it's abstract of Mom's blinds on the front porch at her house refracted by the braided glass handle of a candy dish. Tried a cut crystal vase that did not work at all. Love the color. Shot with the ambient light of the lamp on the other side of the blinds only with the camera white balance on overcast. Love the copper, orange, red and golden tones it produced. Camera on tripod with manual remote.

Post: Convert from raw in PSElements 3.0 with a +0.33 exposure compensation. Healed and cloned dust spots. Layer adjustments for levels, brightness/contrast and hue/saturation. Layer of curves. Rotate 90° right and then rotated 180°. Sharpen. Resize. Sharpen.

An outstanding shot, colors are vibrant, the patterns almost hypnotic. Nice work. Better than 34 IMO.

It makes me curious about what it is. Complex, very golden, and very nice. It fits the challenge criteria well too.
