    I couldn't resist twirling this one, with the long stem of the flower. Poster edges also used.

    Very nice and creative, Judy. I like the colors. There are some minor artifacts around the stem and the flower but does not take away anything from the image. Excellent work. TFS.

    Thanks Indranil! Yes, the artifacts came from poster edges but I decided to leave them.

    Hey Judy, This is a fun look! I do see the halo and might be tempted to remove it if it were mine. Simple yet very creative! Well done. You are really coming up with some unique looks:)

    Judy, I like the wavy wings at the top. It kind of looks like the wicked witch:) The vertical crop and long stem really add to it.

    Amazing that this had any origins in a photograph, very nicely composed and certainly a fun look. Images like this would be wonderful as illustrations in children's books … fun, colourful and easily interpreted by children. Great.
