Went out to Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh mid-day today. Just wanted
to get out and photograph SOMETHING! It's either that or cut the damn
grass (which I'm going to have to do this afternoon anyway).
I was struck by the color of the Japanese Maple.

Brought it home & played with it for just about 5 minutes to create a
"Tony Sweet" image.
Just a layer with a bit of Gaussian Blur at about 60% opacity over the
image plus a saturation boost adjustment layer at about 25% opacity.
Also tried to do it using motion blur layer, but that didn't seem to
work so well.
Anyway, say what you will, I think it turned out OK for just goofing
around.
What this does remind me...the classic shots that used to be in the
Pentax Annual. Successful goofing, in other words
