Nude Orchid

cant remember exactly what steps i used on this one. it was done last year. pretty sure there was some topaz simplify in there though.

thanks for looking. comments and critiques much appreciated.

Harold, Beautiful nude effect. I might take a small slice off the bottom if it were mine-but let's see what others say. Is there tiny blue line on the left edge? Beautiful soft color palette-lovely!:)

denise, i have no idea where that came from. looks like something left over from straightening an image. i just dont remember doing that nor seeing it in the original. gotta check that out!! thanks!!!

Almost abstract, yet you've captured the essence of the flower with the beautiful soft lines and muted monotones, Harold.

Nice image and application, Harold.

But this is a family site! :eek: ;) You should watch your titles!!! ;) :D

But nicely done, except for the minor glitch on the LB that is easily cropped.

Nice effect. I like the shades and the transition. Well processed.

Like the colours and the ruffled edges on the flower, might crop in tighter all the way around Harold:).

Nice work, Harold. Love the soft effect and tones.

Nice treatment Harold! Another good example of the theme. Nice subtle tones and just a hint of edges.

thanks, everyone!! i enjoy this type of art. some really nice images in here this week!!!

Harold, beautiful image. I like the effect the Topaz Simplify has. I agree with a little off the bottom.

:)i like the soft look and close crop. i might crop a bit off the right.
