Tried to create the look of galvanized metal. This one taught me a lot about the huge effect your choice of lighting can have on the end result...

A few samples, done with some of the presets on my own photos:


...and the originals for reference:


This is really quite a simple filter, but I was surprised at the variety of effects when the lighting was altered.

Comments and critique are always welcome! smile:)

Just a couple more samples...

Some emergent fern 'fiddleheads' :


...and a Crocus:



It has a strange effect on a lot of macro shots, due to the depth of field...

(I just realized... I forgot to make downsized versions of the originals for reference. It must be past my bedtime... smile:-p )

I submitted it early this morning. (Oops... it is already Saturday here... make that yesterday morning. smile:-p ) No notice yet, so I guess that means Monday (assuming it is accepted smile;) ).

Thanks! smile:)
