    number 1 - water ball!

    [​IMG]

    can't remember what I did, sorry! But it did involve making it into a ball, and adding a sunburst... I tried lots of things but didn't like them....

    Here's the original.....

    [​IMG]

    It was taken on a footbridge over the Clyde, at Crossford, near Lanark, looking down into the rather fast-flowing river, in very sunny conditions.

    uncropped, slight touch with "brush strokes" to soften some detail, canvas effect, final slight upping of brightness and contrast
