Posterized Rudbeckia

Gallery: Photo ArtPosted September 24, 20071,317 views10 comments

The original image was too soft but I really, really liked the colors therefore I tried my hand at posterizing. This is my first attempt at posterizing so suggestions for improving this image would be greatly appreciated. Or, if perchance you like it that would be nice to know.

Thanks for looking.

Really nice May. I agree that the colours are great together. What an imaginative thing to do with a great photo that just missed the mark!

As you said, the colors are striking and the posterizing brings out the edges. If there is room on the edges, I would suggest giving a little more room for the flowers on each side. Regardless it is a stunning image and the posterization really fits the subject.

The effect you've used looks great to me May..works perfectly with this image.
Looks like this would make an excellent holiday greeting card..There's even room for some text
