I'm not posting this as a good photo. Go ahead and laugh all you want. It's not really a photo anymore. I am attempting to find and learn the many tools and features tucked away in PSE12.

Saw a sunburst-shaped oil stain yesterday and wondered if it was possible to turn it into a good-looking photo. The answer was NO, but I used it as "scrap canvas" to play with star-shaped brushes, supplied frames, the star-burst effect and other doo-dads. I am going to learn to use all of this program. It will take more odd experiments, but I am on a mission. Please excuse me if I post weird test photos from time to time.
