It looks like a hand sticking out of the flower beckoning us to come on in Tosha. I think I will let you go first. lol Again beautiful and creative. Good luck to your dad.
Very nice.. like fire and light are bursting out from inside. Only one slight detractor here (for me) are the small dots and flecks of color in the ares which are supposed to be devoid of color. A quick hit with a clone brush could correct that easily, though.
Please, even if you don't visit my gallery, check out my "Faves".I've left them intact since day "1", and would like it if every image there got the attention they deserved.
The center of the flower is just awesome. But I must admit I don't much like flowers in b&w. I feel flowers are there to show us colour. The b&w makes it much too dull in my own opinion. Verena
"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best," and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called. ~A.A. Milne
