Really nice effects so far. Here is mine. I started out with Kimi's homework, which I didn't do because I didn't like the effect on any of the photos I tried. Anyway, Ctrl J to duplicate, Ctrl U to desaturate, Ctrl I to invert, change blend mode to over lay (end of homework). Next I did Filter>Render>Lighting Effects>Omni (default settings and move the center point to the center of the red orb) click OK, then Filter>Adjustments>Posterize Levels 3 click OK.

Everyone's images look so good - sure wish I could participate, but it looks like it will be Monday before I get the new hard drive.

thanks jane, i think i am filling up my hard drive fast to. Hope yours arrives soon.

that is too funny, Judy

Must be one of Mothra's offspring. After all it is Tokyo. Just need Godzilla to come in and take care of it.

Here's my try - levels adjustment layer; hue/sat adjustment layer to increase saturation in ball; another hue/sat layer to remove color; filter/stylize/find edges; one of Jodi's frames

Really nice, sunny. Love the way the red pops

Looks good Sunny - got me thinking that ball looks like a Christmas ornament....
