I used a couple of filters to slightly alter the original color of the image to make it a little warmer and add more contrast. I used a blue texture that was grainy so I did a motion blur on it and then used Topaz Impression 2 ways and placed both over the image and masked the kite. One was in multiply mode and the other with the white streaks was in hard light. I let the original background show through as it had some blue sky and clouds in it.
lovely colors and feeling of movement. Can almost hear the kite fluttering in the breeze!
Thanks Mitch!
Wonderful colors. Again, I like the sky very much. I wonder about positioning the kite more in the upper right corner.
Thanks Anita. I cropped it like that because of the sky not knowing I would mostly cover it up. See, the sky below the kite was almost all white while to top part was blue.

I like the OP better, Judy. This has an airy, spring feel to it which I'm sure was your intention:S3:
Thanks Cheryl!
Super cool kite! The washed blue & white textured sky bkgd is perfect for adding a windy, motion filled space for the kite to fly in
Very nice! The fluttery tails show the wind and the clouds fit in well. I prefer the second version as the lighter sky has less blue bleeding through to the kite and tails. And I'm a sucker for ragged borders. :S3:
