Theme: Peace

[Christopher Miller]

I took this image this past spring when the lilacs were blooming. I used the Orton effect, gaussian blur overlays, channel mixer, hue/saturation, and a white vignette to create the soft, high-key look I was after. Any C&C are welcome!

Christopher, Really nice color tones and a very nice softness to the image. I like the vignette. I just looked on your BPN Galleries and I love your Black-capped chickadee image! The fluffed up look is always my favorite.

[Christopher Miller]

Thanks Denise! I love the fluffed-up look too. :D

Oh, so soft and dreamy, perfect soft vignette effect, the icing on the cake.

Christopher,

The processing you did on this really does work well with the theme. The soft colors and the flowers make for a very mellow and relaxing mood.

Thanks Fabs and Patti!
