Mixed Media Photograph of the Month Contest Entry 
This mixed media was created just after it rained. I went to a meadow I know where the grass blades would be beautifully decorated with fresh droplets. Just seeing them in normal mode is beautiful, but I thought I'd experiment and see what I could come up with.

I combined the negative with the positive with a gradual transparency. After I made that a solid jpg, I placed it in kaleidoscope, found something I liked and twirled it again, then twirled that again and added more saturation.

Didn't like the center so I traced and cut it out. Created new kaleidscope image for center and changed the hue to blue. This is what I ended up with. I actually did nine of these because I liked what I was seeing and was saving portions for future use. This is actually #9 ,but the first I have posted. This has 3 layers.

Hope you like it!
Thanks SO much for stopping by! :o) Helvi
