Another image from my time at the Butterfly Festival. It was pretty nice to start with but I wanted a more "dreamy" quality to it so I added an 'Orton Effect' action followed by an 'Ethereal Glow' action and then played with the lightness and brightness until I got it just where I wanted it. I masked off most of the butterfly and the head of the flower from both of the actions, leaving just a bit of the dreaminess behind. The rest got the full tilt of both actions to really play up the soft, sleepy mood.
I swear I dreamed this as a child...
