[Judy Howle]

Topaz Simplify and a texture.

[Steve Adkins]

Beautiful, Judy. Colors, texture and vignette of both is very appealing. Very cool stroke/color combo under the bee.

[Gus Hallgren]

Fabulous, Judy, great shot of the bee along with the whole capture which you turned into a super theme. Well done young lady.

Nice composition and texture. I may just tone down the highlights on the lower part of the flower. TFS

Excellent Judy. This is very much in the impressionist style of painting. I love the setting with the bee and lighting is beautiful. lovely bg and effect. One of your best!

[Andrew McLachlan]

Beautiful treatment Judy. Love it! The only thing I might try is to clone out the line above the blossom and maybe the one above the bee. Looks like they are part of the texture, but I find them mildly distracting. Very nicely done!

Judy, This is perfect for the theme! I think Andrew makes a good point about the bright area behind the bee. Very lovely textures and color tones.

[Kerry Perkins]

Judy, sweet image and treatment - well done! I especially like your use of compositional elements in this one. I agree with Andrew about the lines in the texture, I first thought they wer spider web bits, but I guess they are in the texture. Very nice.

[Judy Howle]

Thanks everyone! I will try to make the recommended improvements. yes the lines are in the texture.

Judy, great repost, and just love the texture in this. Those reds really are striking - works for me.
