    I took this in the summer at Paynes Prairie Preserve where I do a lot of my blurs. This was a composite of 3 images that were overexposed, middle one blurred. I used a slight Nik foliage and Topaz Simple filters for the final effect.

    Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated:)

    Very interesting workflow, Cheryl, and I love the final effect. It has a lovely soft, painterly look. I do wish for something that could give the image a stronger focal point, however, like maybe a deer in the meadow or a path leading you in. Just my opinion.

    Cheryl, I like the colors and the softness. I agree w/ Christopher in wanting a bit more of a focal point. Maybe if the large tree grouping were in the ROT and you eliminate some of the right side?

    Nice colors, Cheryl. I agree with Denise and Christopher on the need for a focal point. Also, I would replace the magenta on the tree if it were mine. TFS.

    The colors in the foreground are neat oranges, greens and yellows. Maybe by giving each of them a saturation boost you can make the foreground the focal point
