Tiger in the Garden

This was cropped slightly for a better Comp. Then I used a variety of techniques to achieve the painterly look though the base filter for the look is the Buzz filter from the now OOB Fo2PIX.
Shot was handheld with
24-70 F2.8
Canon 20D
shot in my garden, a newly minted Tiger Swallowtail had not yet learned caution and allowed a close approach for this shot. I dont often get this kind of cooperation (sadly)

Very nice image Kenn,
Love the rich colors...:D

Sweet, Kenn, wish you could add some canvas on top and right, not much, I can't get Buzz, searched on Google and I guess they are out of business?
