I was playing around with textures this weekend and came up with this. I first used PB OP, then Nik Classical Soft Focus and Reflector Effects, slight Topaz and then applied a texture from Shadowhouse and masked back in parts on the wisteria.
Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated.:S3:

Hi Cheryl, I quite like this. The effect on the blossom is beautiful. I haven't played around with textures yet so I am unsure, but is the texture you added covering up part of a flower petal in the upper left? Lovely work!

Cheryl, beautiful processing. The texture colors work so well to compliment the flower. I'm undecided on the triangular light area in the URC, even so, a very soft, colorful, and inviting image. Your texture work has become impressive!

Cheryl, soft and delicate look to this. I would evict the triangle in the URC if it were mine. I like the filter combo you used, nice job!:S3:

Lovely image. Soft color, and composition are right on for me. I like Denise's suggestion about the triangle. Would look great as a really large print.

Thanks everyone. I agree about the triangle. Andrew, the texture is covering up that part of the wisteria which I probably should have masked back in but I liked the texture so much I decided to leave it there:w3 It kind of reminded me of a cloud.
