Photoshop Play

I was out in the garden yesterday and was snipping away on my clematis when I thought, hmmmmmmm, I wonder how this would turn out as a screened design. I just love these little balls of swirly-ness that form after the flower petals have drifted away. Oh, and Abby likes them too, she thought I brought her a new toy. I didn't let her play with it for long as I need to look and see if these are poisonous for cats. Up first is the original photo.


Then I started playing around with several ways to make a black and white image. I created three different images using different settings and filters for each. I like how each of these turned out and I'm not sure at this point if I have a favorite. I think I will make a screen with all three of them and then test the screened results to see if the differences show up or not.
