This began life as a close up of a fully opened tulip and evolved though PS and Topaz filters into this saucer.

Comments always welcomed.

Pat, beautifilly soft transitions of color and texture. I'm sure this was a total winner even before you applied filters.

Patricia, This is beautiful. Only sorry you didn't post a larger image. I question the almost black diagonal line pointing down, just beneath the center of the image. Was it in the plant or added by Topaz filters.

Would never have guessed this was a Tulip.

Nicely done with good gradation in the coloring.

Regards,

Carol

Carol. Sorry for the delay in responding. The black line was the space between the petals in the original image.
