As soon as I saw this image through the viewfinder on my camera, I knew it was magic. The camera did not capture the purple color correctly (it was much richer and brighter than you see here -- a rather washed out version of real life) but it did capture the amazing patterns that made this image so beautiful in my eye.

Nice pic! yeah, most digital cameras have problems with purple, either because of the way CCDs work, or poor factory tuning. My old Panasonic shows purple and violet shades as boring indigo-blue.
