Fooling with photos

This is a cross-stitch someone gave me. I cropped and blurred the background a bit. Here it is cropped even more and highlights added. I like this effect.

Here is my cutie little baby Kindle as a 6 week pup.
Here is the same picture with a hot wax effect. Pretty cool.
This is a geode we have I cropped down. Pretty huh?

Very interesting!
