Thanks to Bob for critiqing my photo
7/21/07 1:25:22, 1/90 sec, 14.80 aperture, 60.00mm, ISO 80, Natural light.
Blackened some out of the background.
To the original, render filter spotlight, flood filter,
Made a copy, posterize edges on the butterfly.
Masked, (I think darken mode), the original and copy together to tone down the posterize edges and darken the butterfly to original color.
Added 15% sat to the photo, Added additional sat to wood piece, used the right antenna for color to lighten the left antenna with the paint brush so you could see it, as it was to dark, Added 10% contrast to finish.
