Last Fall on a frosty morning I was out at Ankley Farm shooting sunflowers.

Some of the sunflowers were dead and brown. I saw this interesting pattern that formed on the backside of this flower head.

Shot with the Fuji X-T30 MKll and the Tamron 18-300.  f/32.

In Smart Photo Editor I cropped what I wanted, Sharpened, and then clicked through filters until I found one I liked.  This is the final result.
