You can get a pkg of these little bulbs, put them in a bowl w/some marbles to stabilize them, & in a sunny window you can have flowers in winter. Plus, they're cheap & easy. I was looking for a shallow DOF in this one.

Thanks for the comments. Yes I did. I used Watercolor & Glass filters. Paperwhites are interesting because they are pure white. I like trying out different effects on them.

i'm sure I'd kill the flowers if I tried to grow them lol. Love the soft whites - very dainty.

This is a lovely effect. Interesting how you can get them to grow with no dirt :)

Nice frosted texture. Like the way the right hand petal looks like it's resting against the glass.

DOF is nice for these. It looks like a lgass-type texture filter.

I like the whites and greens, but overall it looks very edited :( (Watercolor filter?)
