Thanks for the comments Yoshiyuki - The filter? - It is a bit of both. The light was very poor (deep shade) and the textures on the bark not as defined and "gritty" as I wanted. I tried various filters and this really showed what I had in my minds eye before I took the photo. Part of the challenge was also to illustrate to think "out of the box" and that we dont need expensive/fancy equipment to be creative. Regards. Joggie

It's amazing what one can shoot with cellphone nowadays! Most of the people in Japan prefer it to a camera, easy to carry, easy to snap! (not I)I love the result of the filter you applied here! May I ask, you applied the filter because you were not satisfied with the quality of the shot or were you just experimenting? Regards, YT

Yep 10 points... LOL!!! I did (eventually) buy a 'fancy' camera, but still think that my best shot are with the tiny/simple one... or: the photo is only as good as the 'equipment' behind the camera. Like what you've done with this natural abstract... the 'watercolor' treatment works... well done/good point... ;-DD

Hi Joggie,
Splendid serie of "challenge" and how to catch attention by approach. You definitly have a point here and I am sure your students learned a lot of basics, that they will not forget easily due to your approach.
Friendly greetz, Albert Jacobs :)

Agge nee, wat - ek gee sommer op - ek loop koop toe nou die Nikon D200 en allerhande lense, maar ek sukkel my blou om sin te maak van die eenvoudigste toneel.
If you've got it, you've got it! You are a master of your craft, Joggie - wish I were one of your students!
