    Judy, I love the dark tones of the texture overlay you used. I think the Clean adds a tiny bit of something special to this. A great theme image too! Nicely done.:)

    Judy,

    Greetings. The color palette is very pleasing. I like the texture and over all feel of this. While it is probably hard to move off center (not sure what suggestion I would make), I think the center traps the eye some.

    Cheers,

    -Michael-

    The earthy tones are nicely blended with the texture you chose. Very natural presentation. It's interesting for me that some edges of the lily appear to be pealing away from the BG. Great effect! :)

    Thanks Steve! Yes I thought it was a natural for a camouflage image with the actual coloring and patterns and I helped it along a little :) and the textures make it blend in to the bkg a little more.

    Nice colors and moody effect. I agree with you that the textures are neat. Nice job on the border too! Love that Clean filter.

    Excellent effect, Judy. It has a great grungy feel to it. Love the colors and texture work.
