Tiger Lilly Summer

Gallery: Photo ArtPosted September 11, 20071,360 views10 comments

Tiger lillies were one of my Dad's favorite flowers and so they hold a special place in my heart. This photo was taken in my backyard and a poster-edge filter applied. The results I think are pleasing, so I thought I would share it with you.
Thanks for looking!

Gorgeous, I love it, the color combinations here are beautiful and I like the edge interest in the main bloom of the poster-edge filter. Very artistic.

Mary, way to go for the MP this week. This is so colorful and artistic. Good choice of filter; it really pops out the main bloom. Hey, I'd try a gaussian blur on a selection of the left side petals, to recede them and enhance the importance of the main bloom. What do you think? But this is also awesome just as is.

You have a beautiful image to begin with and the poster edge effect has accentuated the lily and blended the background nicely. Well done!
