Re: Contest 73 : Discussion and related pictures
Okay, I'll bite -- here's my entry from the Succulent Art thread. Melocactus matanzus: Photoshop meets Andy Warhol.
I did this as a 4-panel with Negative, Posterize, Solarize, and Solarize+Negative filters with hue and saturation changes to get all the different colors I wanted. Came out pretty well.
Daniel, your thread is just too much fun!

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.
Nice and simple but hopefully it brings a smile
It's a flower of my Gymnocalycium intertextum ready for the festive season.

It’s not the fall that kills you; it’s the sudden stop at the end.

OK, I was trying to think of something NEW per Jens advice.
So I thought I'd enter this ****RARE**** Mammillaria - that is even more RARE than what you find on ebay....
