I took an image of some flowers in front of my TV with frequency snow on the screen. I liked the flowers in the vase but after cropping, I think I like the full frame flowers best and they look like they are made of colored sand.

For me, this image has been grained to the point that it has become a digital art image rather than a photo.
....and we certainly would not want that; now, would we? Sheesh! It seems like someone using a camera for anything rather than literal representation is thought to be a witch on this site. This is a terrific example of creative photography on a thinking level, Eleanor. Your fresh insights and the growth I have seen you display over the past year, have been very rewarding. I know you won't be dissuaded as a result of not conforming to the "rules" on this site. (One of which is that in order for the shot to be successful, there should be something liquid caught splashing upward in the frame.)
A very interesting effect but one that has left the photographic realm and entered the graphical. A very effective floral arrangment with lovely subdued colors.
Not something that works for me asthetically. It's very, very overly processed. But, it does hit the challenge square on the head. The image is enhanced by the grain. 7
Wow, what a really neat art effect! This image is really striking and I like it :-) The colors are good and I think it's a good example of what extreme grain can do to completely change a photo. Very nice pointillism effect.
