Something for the Weekend - Part 234 - Clove Hitch!

Hi,
Well done to all you posted images in our last, 'vital spark', challenge. There were some clever interpretations of the spark plug.

 

This week our starting ingredient is one which may be more familiar to the cooks among us. It is a dried clove but instead of using this one for flavour we will use it in creating an image. What can you make with it?

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the starter image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

 

Dave

Oh, I like this one.  As Dave said, the glass effect is perfect, as is the glow, and the light it appears to be shining on its surroundings.

Welcome to SFTW @waspedro  The clove works very well in that image. That's the clove, small but packed with flavour!

I am sure that cloves are a vital ingredient in many a spell.  I mean, you can't always find newt's tails or coffin nails.

Would it be in poor taste to animate her head coming off?  Whoops, I just checked and she managed to die of natural causes!
