Simple Flower Becomes A Wild Flower

This is the original before my son said "Dad let it go , be creative "


This after altering with his approval

I like the contrasty colors very much, the effect is a bit graphic for me though.

Agree it was hav'n some fun with my son , thanks for stopp'n by

I like it. Yes its a little over the top with the edit but there is something aesthetically pleasing to it. Maybe if you could get a little more colour into it and not have it so contrasting. Just a thought.

Nice.

A fun picture to commemorate a wonderful memory shared with you son! Those are the best!

I like it! I might have put in a vignette but it is your shot, your son, and your fun.

[selig1656]

Took your suggestion JBW here it is , could be stronger to increase the contrast ?

[JBW]

I have never used a white vignette... the thought comes to mind that with a bit of gaussian blur in the vignette you could get a 'coming out of the mist' feeling happening?

But to answer your question a little stronger could work with a little more feathering around the edges?

Raymond, I think your son has a lot of promise as an artist/photographer (or has he realised that already?). I like it.
