    Default Monet Lilacs

    Pretty rusty with the camera and PP skills as I haven't picked up the camera in about two months. 5 sec blur of some lilacs, DAP Monet. and various darkening/ lightening in specific areas of the photo.
    Comments welcomed. Thanks.

    Hi Jackie! Nice to see you posting when you can. Hope your kitty is doing better!

    I like the symmetry of the colors and the abstract look. Just enough of the flowers and leaves showing to give it an impressionistic style. Thanks for taking time to share! :)

    Jackie, this is lovely. The colours are stunning and I like the hint of texture that the treatment has given it :)
    Best,

    Jackie - it doesn't look rusty to me:) I'm glad you're back and I love the painterly look and the yummy colors.
