Built myself a fancy new flash "bounce":

And a sample of how well it works:

I like this one for the flares on the droplets, though you have to view the larger version to see them. Apparently the lens wasn't clean when I took this, hence the glare

Nice tulips.

@Redcarmoose: intriguing colors and textures, are these snippets of painted walls?
@devwild: wow, very nice flares on the original version.
@Towert7: thanks.

They are just regular walls you see everyday. Processing the latent digital information and post processing does an increase to some colors we see everyday and subdues others. So most people would be shocked to see how the image started. You start to kind of feel what post processing is going to do before you take the photograph. I can't detail it for you but after a while you know what stuff will process out to look like. Another way is to spend a day photographing walls then have fun going through processing and learning the outcome with Photo Shop. That is how I did it a year or two ago. It reminds me of the old days standing in the darkroom watching the prints actualize in the bath. Sometimes there would be surprises.

Great shot, Jon L!

Would be interesting to see an unprocessed original.
