Very Creative! I like this effect!

Thanks...after I converted this to B&W, I went in between each needle and the spines and used the Eraser tool and the Clone tool to get rid of everything but the needles. It took a while!

Have long admired this photo and thought I should leave a comment on how much I like it. Wonderful, how you can isolate the needles with such extreme contrast.

I love this, Frank. The geometry and architecture of cacti is so special...I wish I knew Photoshop!

Looking through your photos, you and I have much the same eye.

This is a scary looking plant but yet it seems very unique as a plant and I think I would very much like to have a few in my own home
