| | Good one Frank
Thanks, Craig
Nan... My frame is from a package called PhotoFrame by onOnesoftware. . I just got the upgrade and love the realistic frames and mattes. They have some tutorials (QuickTime, I think) and 30 day demos of all their stuff.

Love the way you desaturated the background! Sure brings out their color! |

| | | I have such a black thumb that the most I can hope to accomplish regarding the flora I love is to either photograph or paint. These Caladiums are marvelous. My hat goes off the Swampy for sharing her beauty with us.
This is my humble try.
