One from the bin. I'm trying something different, and do want to know what you think. Added a textured look around the flower in the framing. I used PhotoFiltre Studio along with a plug - in (beautifier), which I have used before.

Thank you for your comments either yay or nay!

I like how the sun appears to be shining through the flower Tigz. The colors really stand out in the spotlight.

I can barley tell you used any effects on it. It looks very natural. I really like this. I'll be glad when they come out of the ground rather than out of the bin!

love the flower shot of hollyhock I believe - the frame seems a bit distracting to my eyes - plain green might suit me better but that's just my eyes.

Gorgeous colors on this hollyhock ... sure do love the backlighting on the petals as well as the textured framing. The added softness is nice too. Lovely work Sandi. It's fun to try new things.
