Daisy

I added a soft zoom blur effect to this daisy in PS. I also used an orton effect, added a white vignette to lighten the edges, and lightened the corners where there were spaces between the petals. Any comments and suggestions would be most appreciated.

Very nice effect, Chris. Perfect subject for the theme. Nice color. Looks like it twists to the center....well done

Christopher, I like the pattern in the middle of the flower, and how the zoom effect offsets it from the petals.

Christopher, I really like the center and the contrast of the yellow against the white petals really sets it off. Beautifully done.

Christopher, Beautiful soft color palette and the Orton really works well here. I love the inside pattern of the flower.

Hi Christopher,
I really like the effect and the petals emanating from the center of the daisy. Very nicely done.

Christopher, I want to keep this image around for cloudy days. One look and I will feel like the sun is shining! Very nice work. I think the center placement works well for this image.

Christopher, Soft colors and composition make this great.

Nice image and application, Christopher.

Might have added a little contrast, if it were mine, but nice as is and as they say .... ;)

Love the center and the colour palette Christopher. Well done.

Hey Christopher,
I like the subtle tones on this one with a very nice use of the zoom blur but for me the orton effect takes it up yet another notch. Only recommendation....add a 2 or 3 pixel black border....to isolate it from the BPN BG for presentation....always a good idea w/light images. Very well done overall!:cheers:

Thanks very much, everyone! I greatly appreciate your kind comments. :)
