    Default Mums the Word

    I'll offer up this image for the flower theme. It's a bit of a different take on a faily commom shot. The base mun shot was worked in Topaz Adjust to give this almost illustration feel image. How do you all think it would look either softened up or with an added texture such as burlap or linen?

    Dave, I think it looks great ! The illustration feel really works here. I might clone that one little piece of leaf at bottom of frame if it were mine-I don't know if you need any added texture -have you tried it? How does it look?You can always post an add on to this thread if you want to try the texture and get feed-back.Hope this helps!!

    agree with denise, this has a nice texture, illustrated look already. the leaf at the bottom is the only thing i see that is distracting. nice work!

    A fine & lovely image. Nice PP rendered on this one. Liked the 'roughness' Topaz has given to this image. Like the way u've composed this frame with two flowers. Might agree with Harold on the bottom leaf.

    Thanks guys. I had played with some textures and wasn't satisfied. Your comments have verified that it would probably be left well enough alone, with the exception of the leaf that was noted. Tme to do some evicting:)

    Definitely lose the leaf! I'd also think about toning down the darkest greens just a bit as they tend to pull my eye away from the lovely soft yellows. I'd leave some of it dark - just maybe not quite as much.
