FlySwatter*

MA

Ok....so, I have to bow to Vikas and Olaf.dk for their prior photos which have some element of processing that this one does (Vikas and his kitchen utensil, and Olaf with his combs)...I hope this is sufficiently different to warrant some creativity...again, some fun on this challenge. I found the fly swatter in the pool this weekend and decided it was time to get some fun shots off.

Cheers,
:-D

Ok...so I played a little more (some may say too much)...I fear...Olaf.dk's color scheme for his combs is a really appealing scheme...I'll probablky see if I can fin my own 2 complimentary colors...but for now here is the version....

Olaf...Thanks for the comment...I had made the fly swatter neon orange at one point and I almost felt guilty...so reverted to yellow (the original color). As far as influence...this forum has had not only a great environment to share and comment on photos but an opportunity for me to expand my own skills through other's ideas and generosity with their creativity. I feel my own creativity challened and growing with time as these challenges continue.

All the best!

If you hadn't mentioned my name, I would never have made the connection... Inspiration is one of the major attractions in these challenges. That someone would find inspiration in my shots is only flattering. --Olaf.dk
