I did some playing here! Used photoshop CS 2 (punching up the drab color in the thread by Nigel), and more effect's done with photoscape and finished it off in Paint Pro X. Did a lot of cropping here!

Of course I want to know what you think and thanks for your time and comments and any helpful advice.

I did not have anything to weird to share :) so just have a good hump day!

Good photo and great postwork Tigz. I like the softness of the Tulip (I think) Not being the floral expert I am not sure. The black frame really sets it off. Nice post. Where are the puppies?

Beautiful colour (but not too much). I agree with all of the above about how the soft focus really suits the tulip. Worth all the work!

This has the elegance of an oil painting on display at an art show. Very nicely done.

I like your matching color in each of the four corners of the frame. That's a nice touch! Excellent clarity and detail.

It's soft, it's colourful, it's sensuous. I'm not mad about the framing - feels slightly off balance - but the image is lovely. So glad you're finding the Photoshopaholic thread useful.
