Monday Abstract

I kind of feel obligated to assure you that the below shot is not a post-production creation--this is simply a picture of a light fixture with a very high-temperature setting for the white balance.  All vignetting, shading, and colorization is from the exposure alone.

To the person always asking for more colorful posts--is this bright enough for you?

A Rainy Day Flower

I really want to invest in a macro lens, but in this case, the inability to get a clean focus up close and the accentuation of the highlights in the picture creates a wonderful, dreamy soft-glow effect.
