I created two textures from a similar image, blurred them differently, and applied them using different blending modes. Slight vignette. I'm wondering if the two leaves at the bottom of the main stalk look out of place. Suggestions appreciated. :)
Anita, It's lovely. I feel it might be a touch tight on top. The leaves look natural and should be there IMO. I might evict the dark green spot next to the one leaf if it were mine and possibly tone down the top part of the BG just a teeny bit. Beautiful complimentary colors and I like the blending. Nice work.
Agree with Denise's comments and may I also add WOW. Wow, wow, wow. This is so signature "Anita." Absolutely lovely. You have a way of bringing a real sense of diffused light into your work and it's beautiful.
