    Default Sunflower III

    Went back to the sunflower area again on Saturday; found this bloom, slightly "irregular" and was drawn to the look. 180mm, f/11@1/160. RAW image processed in LR; used NIK Color Efex for tone and contrast in PS, then used Topaz Simplify and Fractalius on different layers, varying opacity, to finish the image.

    John, I like the irregular look of this one. And of course, the Simplify/Fractalius combo you've got going Nice one.

    I really like the unusual composition! It's well balanced with wonderful contrasting patterns and colors. Great processing.

    I like this one a lot. The turned in petals add interest. Your processing is just right. I like the softer fractilus in the bg. Good composition showing us the interesting part of the flower.
