Thank you all, for your appreciative comments

While going through some of my old flower photos which were not upto mark, I thought of making abstracts out of them in photoshop. I used old photoshop plugin- Alien Skin-Eye Candy-Swirl and did some tweaking, the resulting images are posted here for your comments,

Rick , I am happy these images rekindled your childhood memories
Peter, thanks. Happy you liked the images.

Thanks, Spad. Orme is GREAT

Thanks, Les

Recently we had been to Eryri (Snowdonia), Llandudno and The Great Orme on a conducted tour. We went to the summit of Snowdon mountain in Snowdon Mountain Railway. Unfortunately it was raining throughout and at the summit it was rain with gusty cold wind and very poor visibility. Photography was just not possible and we had to return to the base. The next day on Llandudno and The Great Orme tour weather favoured us, specially travelling to the summit of the great Orme in The Great Orme Tramway was very enjoyable. A few images captured on the tour are shared here, shall appreciate your comments.

The colours and clarity are superb in the first one !

Superb set ! Agree with Les about 6th, an excellent image ! Liked the first one too for perfect colour, clarity and compo.
