Default Breaking News, cactus launched!

I selected another image for the background. Liquified a background copy layer to created the sun flaring (well, sort of...)
I carefully selected the head on the cactus, copied it, pasted onto the new background then rotated it around and moved into place. I erased some more of the cactus then feathered the edge a little to blend it better.

From DPS


Windrider, can we send some images by PM?

My View

I've always thought Cacti shots in negative/b&w look like alien landscapes - that was my goal.
