    Anita, Nice composition and I agree this weeks theme challenges our imagination (thanks Kerry). Nice job w/ the dandelion and the softness is really conveyed.

    Very nice, Anita. You picked a great subject to communicate tactile softness. The soft focus on the fuzzy seeds and BG, along with the close-up view, really help to emphasizes the softness very well.

    I also like this one...but might put a little blur or NR on the BG area as it feels a little grainy in places compared to the softness of the dandelion. I also like that the color scheme makes me think of soft as well!

    Very nice image and interpretation of the theme Anita. I think that conveying feeling in our images is the biggest challenge! Nice job of doing just that, I can almost feel the softness of the seeds.

    I took Jules's suggestion (thank you) and ran Topaz DeNoise. I also added Orton effect to edge of Dandelion on the BG.
