Theme: Lily Pattern
I took this image at Longwood Gardens in the summer. It was a random shot of water lillies. I added a slight topaz simplify and texture then I layered a few layers at lower opacity (something similar to Fab's tutorial on multiple exposures)to create a semi-blur softening effect. I added a water paper filter to soften the image a bit more.I wanted a semi-Asian feel to go w/ the Lilies. Oh ya I cloned a few spots also!:)

Denise - I really like this a lot. It has a silk-like quality to it that is very appealing:)

Very nice effect, Denise. I like the softened look to it.
Very nice image, Denise! One of my favorites of yours! Love the pattern and effect. Has a nice 3d look to it.
For some reason I never really got into these blurs...this one is different...maybe because its not as blurry as some...catches my eye..well done
Your treatment here is tremendous - and you did create a look of a painting on rice paper. Your lilies look like you created them in camera. Where does one find the tutorial you speak of?
Thanks everyone for your kind words.Much appreciated.
Barbara, Here is the link to the tutorial in Educational Resources.

Barbara, I took a peek at your homepage and I saw some really beautiful work. Looking forward to seeing some more. If you need any help navigating or finding anything just give a shout. Everyone here is very friendly. Especially in this forum, we have a nice group of folks.
I'm learning that already! Thanks so much, and very happy to be a part. I look forward to learning and sharing.
The colour palette really works here for me D, and of course the repeating patterns. A wallhanger:)
this is pretty cool, denise! i like what you did here.
Thankyou all for your kind comments.
