    Default Flower with a sparkle

    Another image from the archives. I wish I knew the name of this flowering tree, I found it at the LA County Arboretum. A bit of Topaz Star Effects to give it the little twinkle in the eye. Other than that, no processing was applied.

    I love the profile view! The star is a great touch -- subtle, but I saw it immediately.

    Beautiful flower. Profile is great. Love the colors. Nice bg. I also like the star--it is a good example of how the subtle use of an effect is very effective. Have no idea what flowering tree this is.

    Very fanciful, Kerry. It could be Tinkerbell landing

    Love the touch of sparkling whimsy! A simple and elegant composition of the single flower and the upright buds with great details. The muted bkgd perfectly highlights & show cases the colors of the flower and buds.

    I particularly like the composition and bg. The star is a novel addition.
