@Cool: I think that image will look more beautiful in B/W or some other tone. Try that also.

Exactly what I was thinking. I was thinking of giving it a sepia or black & white touch. Will do it later. Thanks for the comment.

I just tried my hands on it for my practice. Its a good practice to practice on other's things. Please comment if its looking ok. And what should I have done to imporve it.

As the original image has very few colors. And the composition and the image is creating very very dramatic and strong effect so I tried it to give a abstract look.

krow: The blurr is done by camera. I had cropped the image to go a bit more close to the worm. That is why its not visible on lower end of the image.

@cool: These comes many in my garden but snapping them is not a easy task but this come walking over the cemented portion. I don't know his name.

@anoroin.: This time Your images are very clear, sharp and very well composed as usual. But you have over done the PP. You should have not raised the saturation too high.

Actually increasing the saturation is not a good idea most of the time. Instead increase the contrast and brightness.
Your images are hurting eyes because of unnatural colors but pleasing because of interesting composition.

@Anorion - I think even you can feel they are not done right. The colors are overtly saturated. In the second one the blur which you have brought in the background doesn't appeal. It would have been better had it left clear & visible.

@Toofan: Where did you find that critter?
@Cool G5: The bridge is framed very well, but the barbed wire is a little distracting. Which garden is this anyway?

I liked the trick with the unsharp mask. What do you people use to blend it in though? Overlay? And yeah, the original pics are waaay out of focus in comparison. Donno what is wrong with my cam. Cannot achieve better results with manual focussing because the viewfinder is too small to really focus well. Works well enough for macros, but otherwise the photos turn out to be even more blurrier. Ah well. Here are the originals. I think I will just stick to uploading originals till I do a little more R&D into pp. But I liked the bridge becoming pink!

@Anorion - There is a garden adjacent to Hinduja Hospital.
Get your camera checked to rule out any problems. The colors look a bit pale you can intensify them for a much more natural feel.
