 A tribute to by Yanko. I ran across his image on DPC while looking for ideas of what to do with a light bulb. Thanks Richard!

I followed directions on a website about how to hollow out a light bulb. It was a very trying process.. I almost gave up several times... then once I get it finished and am ready to go pick some flowers, it starts to rain. So now the flowers I wanted to put inside the bulb were wet. It was not a happy shoot.. but a few shots worked out.

Converted from RAW, cloned out some spots, desaturated some glare, adjusted curves and levels, hue and saturation, nik sharpened, resized for web.

Like the idea :-) Lighting needed to be gentler on that hotspot on the top of the bulb, IMO.
