A couple of round glass vases.
Applied Topaz presets of "Color Blast" & "Smooth and flat" on different layers at different opacities. Flattened and applied several strong doses of Noise Ninja (Strength 20; Smooth 20; Contrast 0. Coarse Noise enabled. Toned down some bright spots, and applied levels to darken it down a bit more.



LOL - I thought this was pretty dark, myself. but that's life. I had fun doing it.

This is so pretty. I love the colors! It's like looking at two beautiful bubbles. I think it's cool that you were able to pull out the colors like this!

I love the way the processing brought out the subtle color and enriched them. Makes for an intriguing abstract!

This image might have been better suited to the concurrently running challenge "Light II" much like the reviewer's own entry. Still, an appreciation of abstract photography is appreciated and this is a good example of the genre. The complimentry colors, pleasing and gentle curves and the not so subtle diffences in shape make a very effective presentation. While it can be viewed as outside the challenge criteria, in another way it does meet the challenge.
