There is an upside to back problems that tether you to your home and make you carry a $100 dollar cushion (I had bought it for my mother’s wheelchair years ago) wherever you go in the house.  If you are a photographer AND can find a comfortable sitting position in front of your computer, you can work on images you’ve neglected for one reason or another.

Who knew a cockscomb flower was actually an ice cream cone?

The scans below are what I started with.  This image started with just looking at this odd flower that is usually found in a bouquet of other flowers. I looked at it for a long time.  There is something creepy about it. It’s fuzzy to touch.  Then, I thought, “Well, this stem looks like an ice cream cone.”  I see food like that boy in the movie saw dead people   Then, Nik filters and Photoshop did the rest.
