From Nature to Art, Digital Progression

[Chewys Dad]

Good Morning DPS Family, Well I'm off to Pusan South Korea today to see about getting my Canon 70-200mm f/4.0 lens fixed, I dropped it and although it still works perfectly, it's just slightly bent and I hope they can fix it.

This is a picture of a small fly that I caught in flight, it was interesting, but not something I would have posted. but I played with it in Photoshop CS4, Topaz Simplify and Lightoom & I liked the results so much I decided to post it.

So here you go! Digital Art, I love creating it almost as much as Insect Macro Photography.

I Fly.

Hope you enjoy it, I had fun creating it.
Have a Blessed Day!
Michael.

Thanks Ian, I'm just on my way out the door, hopefully it won't cost too much to get it fixed.

Oh, that's really cool! It looks like it should be jewelry. A nice bracelet, maybe.

Thanks Pen, I just got back and they can fix it. 2 or 3 days and I'll have it back. Hopefully not too expensive.
