The Second Life
by LanceD

... simple, quiet, clean, and somewhat boring

no food, no water...

everlasting...


This is how I think of our second-life, like a resurrected dead plant

Thanks Ann and MFC. Yes, simplicity was what I tried to shoot for in this image.About the frame, I used an action macro in PS created by EJN (a STFer). He was very kind to send many of them to me. Using it was VERY easy. Just finish your photo, then choose the frame type, either vertical or horizontal, then click play in the "action" window, the macro will do everything for you. I believe the frame was created using the cloud filter with Black and Cherry color, then apply sponge filter on it, then added Gaussian noise on the top, then blur them.

Beautiful in its simplicity. I'd like to know how you made the frame... Ann C

LanceD, interesting concept and image to match...nicely presented too. I like how you set this up and composed it. Very nice use of a "resurrected dead plant". MFC
