Apophysis, Photofiltre...This looked like wings to me. I decided to go with a lighter, softer background to make them show up more. Please take a closer look. Comments welcome and appreciated.
Way to go with the ice blue background, Larry, I just love to take these kinds of risks. If you see wings here, hey that's great. I see a centipede on steroids, but hey, it's late, & I'm also watching Chicago & smelling my mud encased dog, which might have a lot to do with my perceptions. Aside from all of that, it's a smooth & elegant looking image & I love how all those shades of blue just naturally flow onto one another. A beautiful flame, and * sigh * apparently you are earning your new title.
WOW PRINCE LARRY OF APOPHYSIS.. lol... what can I say except tell Randy im on the plane cos I want lessons on how to do this too.. LOL...
Seriously now... this is a fantastic flame and gradient, its perfect on the lighter background it brings the feathers more natural and clearer... dont know about it being a centipede on steroids (Lauren stop sniffing that dog.. lol or drinking those black russians.. lol) I can see a wing.. lol.. BEAUTIFUL WORK Larry
This is a terrific image here Larry..love the colors used..being of course that blue is my favorite color and all...I think you did this just right and this works so good as a desktop..high marks from me Larry :)
