This image was taken a few years ago, at the local Butterfly House, which unfortunately has recently been closed. T
he process includedremoval of the BG and the following applications; DAP Realism, Topaz Lens Effects, Topaz Simplify Watercolor, Topaz Simplify Oil Paint, Topaz B&W Conversion (Created overlay layer with reduced opacity and transparency), Photoshop Oil Paint, Photoshop Dry Brush, Photoshop Polar Coordinates, and Photoshop Radial Blur.
I purposely did a tight crop for this image, due to the radial blur effect and to conform to the weekly theme, to bend the rule of thirds.
