Heaven Scent

I loved making this soft focus adjustment and vignette to this curved spray of society garlic.  The effect gave the ethereal look that I sought.

I'd say you accomplished your goal.  Lovely soft colors, a nice composition, and I like the high key vignetting.  Well done.

Certainly met your goal. Lovely soft focus spray of flowers.

I love your vision and the creation of an original image of these small flowers not easy to take in a nice way.

This is lovely.  The soft focus is very nice here.  Fading out the colors in the background helps to emphasize the flowers

ps.  Found that blur brush! Fun!

Lucy,

A little late, but since I'm visiting the Flora gallery here I just had to comment.  This simply elegant and beautiful. I love the processing here; the softness of both the flowers and the colors blend together wonderfully.

I could see this on a note card, calendar or a nice print.  Love this.
