Not so out of the ordinary, but the result of a cooperative Great Spangled Fritillary. :)
And there are A LOT of things I could do with photos laying around but most of the time I just stick to straight photography. Maybe someday I'll try 3D software.

I really like Ivan's circling vultures. Great concept! And they look very similar to the vultures in my area.

Thanks! The images are taken in Carmel-By-The-Sea, California. Those are turkey vultures. :)

I click on the link to your image (great stuff) and found that you use Keywords with "", if you click on one of these you get this:

An Error Was Encountered

The URI you submitted has disallowed characters.


I guess GLO doesn't like these characters, you may want to Edit your Keywords.  This is also new to me so I will also have a look at mine.

Most of these are completely done with photoshop CS2-3 ... except for number two, combination of photoshop and bryce 3D.

I wish I had a talent for backgrounds like that.   Donīt know what Iīm doing wrong,  it always ends up with a mess and frustration after two hours waste of time;)  Great stuff

Thank you for the heads up. I usually keyword for Shutterstock and they require the quotes for two word terms. Looks like I'll be going back in at GLO and removing all kinds of quote marks.  :)

Your image (without a flame) is the most downloaded image of a child with a dandelion. I personally saw it of a huge wall in a shopping center in San Jose, CA. I am not sure if it was Westifield Valley Fair, or West Gate shopping center.... But the image was over the whole wall in the hallway...on the second floor I think.

I know and this image as most of stock images, is annoying me. Thus why I made something more original with it. The most annoying, is it was the very first image for the search "girl, nature". I guessed that those 2 words would get me to this image and I couldn't be less right.

It's a brilliant image! I just don't want to hear how much you've got for it. Long ago and far away, they would have paid 1000$ for this kind of stuff. Don't tell me you gave it away for just 900$!  ;D

After few months I pick up refubished professional Mitutoyo microscope with collectable Olympus Tokyo objectives very cheap but without few parts.
So this is first practice image of small vine fly combined in about 70 focus images at enlargement about 100x, I missed first front focus detail so head antenae and mouth are too blur to submit. I hope scope will bee fully operational at end of the year, lets say simbolic entering in  New Year with new Niche  ;D
Anyhow, how image is not for stock just wander what you reaction will be when somebody ring at you door and see creature like this thru peep hole...
