Thought I,d try something a bit different. Big in frame- dilapidated crocus !!
Makes a change.

Love it! Another great job of stacking, too. Is there a tad more room at the bottom? Or get rid of the white thing there.

[John Robinson]

Thanks Diane. I had a bet with myself saying you would think it too saturated !!! You let me down ! I purposely left this one "pretty"
Thanks for looking. Can remove the bottom bit I think - might have to "invent" a bit !

I prefer the darker OP, but nothing wrong with the RP -- just preference. Not too saturated at all, to me. I see you cleaned up some spots in the BG. I usually like a hint of detail in a dark BG but the round one near the left edge is better removed.

You are a flower wizard.

Flower wizard indeed! Beautiful. I rather like the imperfections.

Hi John. Dilapidated is right - looks like the bugs have been chewing on this one. Nice job with the stacking and I prefer the darker tones of the OP. The repost is a bit less sharp for some reason (?) but I like the cleaner black background on that image.

Hi Steve
Looking at it now I can see what you mean. I know what it is. When I played with the one for Diane I got the wrong original. I have a bout 4 almost identical. Well, I thought they were but obviously not !
Well spotted.
Cheers
