    Congratulations Anita!

    From Longwood Gardens Conservatory. The flowers were planted with widows behind them, causing many to turn away from the viewer and towards the light. I thought the backs were as beautiful as the fronts.

    I took two photos at different apertures and superimposed one on top of the other. This allowed me to get detail in the flower with a more blurred background. I brought out more detail with Topaz Detail. Applied two textures by Joel Olives.
