Lotus pad with lotus pod with reflection on left. I used Topaz Adjust originally and then I used Fractalius and duped the layer and changed to soft light, combined the layers and used Topaz Adjust to brighten the colors.
I love the lotus pad absolutely, but I think the pod is a little distracting as it goes against the lovely curves of the pad and the water. A bit like a hard, straight line against all the curves. But I really love the colours and processing on this, it really glows.
Very colorful and gem-like texture to this abstract, Judy. Like your creative combination of Topaz and Fract, but agree with Hilary regarding the pod being a little distracting.
