    Dragonfly on a decaying lotus pad. I hope this qualifies as an abstract! I used Topaz Adjust twice actually2 images saved and one used Photo Looks. Then I combined the two as one was dark and one too light.

    Judy, very imaginative and different! I would say that the background is definitely abstract and the DF in that context seems pretty abstract as well. I might like to see him a little higher in the frame. Nice work to get the colors and textures. I would paint out the green on the head.

    Thanks Kerry! I worked on the image and cropped it a little more but I couldn't reposition the dragonfly as I cropped it before creating the image.

    Hi Judy, looks better with a little off the top! Head looks better too.
