Just a Rose

Darren, the effects are stunning. PS is really a great product, but you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear - you need a terrific photo to start with, and this certainly is one of those. Extremely well done, my good friend.

  I do like it, Darren! I think the effects emphasize the softness of the petals and also give a little bit of an antiquated feel to the photo. Reminds me of velvet or suede cloth with the subtle color variations. Very cool image!

  It's not just a rose, it's a work of art. Love the look your PS work gave this already excellent image. Well done, Darren! :-)

  It's just beautiful, Darren! I love the effects ... it gives it an abstract feeling. It's also very dramatic!

  Not "just a rose"...it's a Darren style piece of art.
Reminds me of fading love/passion with the coloring. Great job :)

  Nicely done, Darren.
Thanks for the heads up, Murry.
I just glanced through the Edge catalog and spotted your Mabry's Mill right away.
I'll have to look through for the others.
Congratulations!
