Blue 2
Just having some dreamy fun with the theme and a couple of real blue BFs. Masked and blended several layers in CS5 using, Frac, Pixel bender-Oil paint, Topaz simplify-wood carving and Topaz adjust-Sketch-color. Thought about masking back more detail in the BFs but ... left it whimsical.
All C&C welcome.
Steve, Very beautiful work on the BF's. I like the way you processed them. I might try to get a bit more detail out of the center of the yellow flower blooms if it were mine. Very appealing image!:)
Hi Steve,
I really like what you have done with this one. Agree with Denise on a little more detail in the blossoms.
Andrew
Good ideas, denise and Andrew. Here's a version with a bit more detail... color... and one eviction. :)
Very nice work on the Butterflies....I might work on the original to bring out the details and colors of the blossoms, add a layer of the bluebutterflies...but thats just me Steve, your idea, your vision
Steve, I could see this one both ways (no, I'm not a politician!). I like the soft, dreamy look and I could see a sharper version too. Either way I like it a lot. The re-post is better, especially without that branch in the LRC. :cool:

Steve, The repost looks good:)
Nice image and application, Steve.
Like both, but like the second one a little more ... ;)
I vote for the repost!
Hi Steve,
Really like this one now with the added detail to the flowers. Looks good!
Thanks, everyone! Really appreciate your time, comments and vision. :)
Beautiful, the composition is sweet.
Steve, I like the repost with the added detail. Nice use of the wood carving filter - I've never gotten anything I liked with it:)

I would like something between the two but closer to Pane 1 as the flowers in the reposts steal our attention from those killer blue flutterbys.

Artie, I wondered the same thing about the amount of color...
