This morning, while I was watering herbs and seedlings in my windowsill garden, I noticed the light hitting the violets on the countertop. Against a shadowy background, the colors seemed to glow. Light passing through the cobalt bottles on the sill added even more color. The top shot is the original, and the bottom is the same, but put through the cartoon filter in the GIMP program. Especially on dark shots, the cartoon filter gives a photograph the look of a woodblock print. I like to use them paper cards and iCards.
