I'm a member of CAPA (Canadian association of photographic arts)and I also have a web page with Canadian Geographic Photo Club(photoclub.canadiangeographic.ca).Both of which I feel are very beneficial to anyone in photography.
Thank you for your comment, when I run out of photos to work on I like to play with the abstracts, i use all kinds of filters but one of my favorites is the displace filter under the distort filters menu, it takes a while to understand what this filter does and there is not enough room here to explain fully, there are many explanations if you search on the internet, i use my own photos and distort them into what you see, I love your photo of the flower with the rainbow, this would be a prime candidate for an abstract with the amazing colors...MarkF
