this is a composite image with texture layer. Using channels I made a mask and left one of the orchid blooms center untouched gaussian blur at 4.1 px. I added an adjustment Hue Saturation layer and then the water mark.

No flash, hand held, 1/200 sec, f/5.6, iso 200, available light from window, late afternoon.
70mm-300mm Nikor Lens.


any comments are welcome and I enjoy reading along on the other posts.

thanks :smile:

Lovely texture work Diane and I like the dreamy mood and the light. Beautiful image for my tastes.
