    Converted pink lilly to BW, then selected bg and inverse. Copied inverse (the flower) and pasted each on a different layer, adjusting placement. Sepia using hue/sat and selective color.

    I like the first one the best - the sepia against the black is such a great combo and the fact that this is all the same lily is amazing. Nicely thought out, Hazel!

    Hazel, I agree with Jules - I like the first one better! Lovely tones and dark background, beautiful. You did a really good job with the placement of the clones in the frame. I can imagine the flowers being ballet dancers on a stage, shot from the balcony. Good show!

    I agree with Jules too, the black BG sets off the elegance of the lilies much better IMO. :) I love how you composed the flowers and lovely sepia tones.

    Very nice work Hazel! I love the first one. The dark BG really makes this stand out well.
