 This is a close-up of a witch's ball. No, it's not something nasty... ;-) It's a stained glass "ball" that people hang in their house for protection & good luck (it's supposed to capture ill spirits inside it I think).

PP included very little: crop, levels, color sat, contrast, resize, sharpen, & save for Web.
