Floral

By themselves these aren't really very good pictures.
But I'm sure something good can come out of them.

Re: Floral

I was going for a slightly different look, but when playing with blend modes and opacity this came out, so I kept it.

Re: Floral

Lovely floral photos Peter....Like your silky embossed look to the lillies...

Palms....Both are lovely...but the Irises are my faves...look hand painted....make a lovely card or print for your wall!!!

Ziaphra...Love your sketches...really bring out the details...

I have been playing in Photoshop...smudging and curves....framed with an action...

Re: Floral

I'll ditto Palms here thank you, like the frames your coming out with (just wait till you get you new eyes).
Right, back to playing with some new brushes some very kind lady donated to the cause. They are very good.
