I learned to manipulate the images, hoping at first merely to improve them, but soon realizing that once an image file was on my hard drive, I could do anything I wanted with it.

BTW: I found you by way of refdesk.com through the Botany Picture of the Day... :)
Thanks so much for being open to the inspiration.
