Water Lily for Lunch

[Judy Howle]

I had long ago thought about putting this sequence of three images in a triptych and the theme inspired me to do it. I used many filters on it, Topaz Adjust, Magic Bullet Photo Looks, and a stack of 4 presets in Perfect Effects to give it the glow and colors and tones with a little lower saturation and a little lighter center and darker edges with one of the presets in PE.

Judy, this is perfect! I especially love the glow and the story that you've told with the images. The deer looks fat and happy and I know how much they love flowers!:S3:

[Judy Howle]

Thanks Cheryl!

Judy, A wonderful sequence. I like the soft glow and vignette. Seeing the deer eat the flower is a great!

[John Storjohann]

A very nice behavioral sequence...wonderful processing, strong composition, and the center image is stunning...my favorite of the three. Well done!

[Nancy Bell]

This is a very sweet sequence. Using the triptych this way shows a behavioral sequence that tells a story more dramatically than a single image. The glow puts a wonderful soft emphasis on the deer and water lilies.

[Judy Howle]

Thanks very much Denise, John and Nancy! Yes the center image is my favorite too and I think I posted it here last year.

[Paul Lagasi]

Very nice sequence, love to watch deer. I never knew they ate Water Lilies...perfect 3 images for triptych...well done

[Judy Howle]

Thanks Paul! I didn't know they ate water lilies either and was very surprised to see that.

Perfect series for a triptych! This series made me laugh--especially that last image--caught in the act! Nicely done.
