Very cool, Lorell. The colors sing. My favorite figure is the one at bottom right. Unless the software you used is extremely full-featured, I think I see numerous areas where you applied localized sharpening to good effect.
Still no new photos from me worth sharing so I went back into my archives to March 2017 and tried something I've not done before - a moderate Orton effect on a B&W image. You can't really discern the typical Orton look (it seems to work best on full color landscapes or florals), but it did a good job of softening the areas I wanted to de-emphasize and brightening areas I wanted to emphasize. A little bit of localized brightening and darkening took this a little farther, then I finished with a touch of sharpening here and there. It was a fun experiment and I learned a bit by doing it.
And being in B&W, it is a strong contrast to your wonderfully colorful image.

Don't blame me - I didn't vote for him!
