This image was taken at Butterfly World a while back. It like the previous image was processed in a number of DAP applications, to see if anything interesting would develop. I used Aquarell, Realism and Sunflower applications, in addition to Topaz and CS4 normal adjustments.
Gorgeous colors, Mark! Beautiful BG, but IMO it distracts from the hummer. I'm wondering if you can tone down the BG but keep the bird as is. I can see a lot of work went into this image. I really like the irregular edges in the frame.
Mark, Nice painterly effect and the colors are great! The random edges are really nice. I might try to get the eye to stand out a tiny bit(maybe a catchlight). Toning down the BG would be an option but I do like the colors a lot.:)
Beautiful colors and pose, Mark. I have to agree that the BG is a little distracting. I think a smoother BG would be better. I would also move the bird out of the center and closer to the LLC.
