Can't resist making a fool of myself again !! ::)

Dissection of a chocolate, Malteser even ? Or, maybe a chestnut ? Or, a tiny onion ? Or possibly a fat ball for the birds ? A holly berry ? ::)

Give us a clue Eric, please !!

Post by: Palustris on December 15, 2004, 20:11:21: I try out all the effects etc. in various photo manipulation programs till I find a result I like. But dont ask me to repeat the stages, cos it is all guess work. But fun!

Post by: Palustris on January 02, 2005, 14:52:02: Sorry I did not realise I had not said what the second picture is. Believe it or not, it was originally a close up of the inside of a clematis, I think sieboldii elegans.
